    Why no low profile centefeed bodies?

    I was just wondering...

    How come AGD has not come out with a low profile center feed body? Yes, I understand you don't have as many balls stacked in the tube and they might be slightly more prone to chopping. However, the new loaders and intellifeed should negate this problem.

    After all, it looks like the new SFL's are lower profile and angels feed just fine with the lowered hoppers as well... so what gives?

    Thanks

    because you can stick your finger in there and it will injure your finger real badly or it can chop it off.

      Yeah, the MicroE has a short rise feed. But, why would you want a vertical feed on a 'Mag anyways? Powerfeed is a lot better.

        none of you guys can get me to beleve you have a revy that can keep up with a rt. unless it has a warp along with it. and actuly powerfeed is better. there was a post a while back about it.
        Sorry for the spelling. Im still working on it.

            mags feed horibly with vert feed. WHY? Because of blowback. Air comes up the feed port and slows down the balls falling into the breach. High rises help use the weight of balls to feed faster. Powerfeed stops the air from moving the balls out of the way. I wont use a mag for this reason. My ground zero timmy has an oring on the front that keeps air from commming up the feed. ALso my f5 sucks balls into the feed port. Powerfeed is a jury rig for a fall back of a gun. I understand side feed right left or vert feed, but why would anyone want an unbalenced gun where there is no line of sight eghter. Its the werst of all worlds. But on a mag its all u have to use if u wana fire fast otehr than a warp feed.

              Yeah...

              I hate powerfeed... it makes off handed shooting even worse. Tilting a warp around is one thing, but you can't tilt the damn hopper out of the way with powerfeed on your offhand side... the balls simply won't drop.

              I haven't heard many complaints over retromags having feed problems. On e-mags you can limit the rate of fire can't you? Honestly, I would rather have a gun with a nice light short trigger limited to 8 balls a second with a short feed stack then one with a big *** highrise that can go 2398239023 a second. I am only using the thing for snap shooting anyway... I hope AGD makes an extreme thats got a nice small stack for the non-warp people.
