Something I thought I'd never say-

[Maghog]

Hey Thor,
What's the deal with the E-mag in germany? Where are you moving to? Coincidentally I'm moving to germany in another month...we should hook up, start an AO chapter over there or something.
Anyway, I'd have tears streaming down my face if I couldn't use my E-mag. I just bought an angel not because I love it so much, but because I want to carve the body. I've shot many an angel, and though they are very nice guns, they don't do it for me like a mag does.

Hey Maghog,
I'm going back to Mannheim (where I'm actually from).
Thats in the south west about 1 hour south of frankfurt and about 15 min north of Heidelberg (in case you've heared about that).
By the way I'm going back there in about 8 weeks i had mistyped it in my last post.
Ok now to the e-mag in germany. Any paintball gun sold or used in germany has to have a "F" sign imprintet which means that it is tested and legalized from the german government for use.
To get a gun on the list of legalized guns somebody has to make a proposal to the german gun agency and give them a gun to test. If they say the gun is ok it goes on the list.
Once the gun is on the list a dealer can give you the "F" for a small fee on you gun if it is similar to the one tested.
To have a gun without an "f" is basicly the same than having a real gun. And for that the laws a really strict and you can go into prisaon if you don't have a wapons permit!
The last time I checked the e-mag wasn't on the list and I'm wondering if AGD (or AGD EUROPE) is even trying to get it there.

If you are an american and you only play on US-Army property you don't have to care about it because the german police can't enforce it there.

hi guys. i just have one question about the emag. whenever i see people play with it they always have the stock barrel on. is there a reason for that? can you put aftermarket barrels on it? i just wonder because i dont really like how the stock barrel looks and also wonder why people dont change it.

Did I make it seem like I disliked emags?

Becasue I don;t really. I think thier fine guns.
Sorry if you thoguht that I disliked them. I was saying that thoguht i like the emag, I too like the Angel, and is there such a crime in that? No one said that if you loves mags you couldn't like others.
Thank you for all your help thoguh guys.

Oh, and yeah, the Agel was heavy, but i haven't decided wether it the the 114 ci tank or not...

hey andrew, your ? about the barrel, i just got my emag but had a 68 for a while before that, i bought a freak barrel system cause i was actually thinking ahead adn knew that they were interchangable between the two guns because both were agd, well anyways, i have the freak system and haven't even used it on my emag in a game, i thought i would but then i saw how accurate the stock barrel is, so i just kept it on there, plus it looks a little cooler.

I wish I had his kinda money.

I personally like the Angel better than the E-Mag, but thats simply because I love the way they look...as for performance, you'll get about the same either way.

Hoffentlich koennen wir uns mal treffen.

Hey Maghog!
Your german is pretty good!! I really don't wanna know how my english sounds sometimes!!
Hey Freiburg is only like a 3 hour drive from mannheim sure we can meet some times.
By the way if you are in freiburg you're pretty lucky. It's close to france and because the laws are much more liberal in france a lot of people go and play paintball there. There you don't need a "f" on your gun and you can schoot 300 fps (the german law says 220 fps I think)

If you have an address Thor, or an e-mail where you know you can be reached, please send it to [email protected]. I will be sure to get in touch when I have settled in.
As far as France goes, I already have a friends who have been checking it out, they say the same thing you do.
I was not aware of the 220 fps rule, this just keeps getting worse...how are you supposed to still enjoy the game with al these restrictions. I'm going to have to talk to some of the German legislators at some point.
The cool thing is that we'll be close to the world cup, that I definitely want to go to.

2 of my friends made the same mistake

Now they are trying to sell their angels to get an Emag. But they will loose some cash, i told them they should have bought the Emag first. Anyway, i let them play with my EMag once in a while, until they sell their angels. The good thing about it is the more i play with their angels, the more i like my Emag
