Bingo. Since I got the paintjob, Nitro and drop forward the reaction on the field has completely changed. They assume I am good or I wouldn't have such a cool looking gun. Sad but true. Now if my game got any better I would really have them.

I've gotten a few "The one mag that doesn't chop" comments. And this coming from a kid that HATES mags. He absolutely hates them. Don't know why, don't really care. I am one of few mag enthusiasts out here, and once i get an extreme(hopefully), i'll turn some heads, and maybe change some minds. We'll see.

well Budd Orr as we all know has succeded in brainwshing 95% of paintbalers into thinking that looks come first and proformance comes last thats y people cant stand mags we proud mag owners at this forum are a minorty and there for can sneak up on all those brain washed foos

i think it has alot to do with aftermarket parts, which is a reason why we don't see tons of bushys eather. both those and mags are rockin markers but they are extreamly overlooked. another thing is, with looks, most people are just to lazy to do it them selves, i mean realy, it cost 100's to paint and fancy up a cocker, but it cost me 10 bucks, and some time, with a little bit of patiance, and now i'm holding my newly painted mag body in my hands and it's a true beuty in my eyes.

True Magatron, $10 could make a Mag pretty. But a Mag has some options now where a person can spend $100s if he/she wishes to make their mag look even prettier as well. I'm not just talking about buying after market parts (triggers, trigger frames, body rails, site rails, main bodies, etc.). Anodizing aluminum pieces, show chroming aluminum as well as stainless steel, powdercoating aluminum and stainless steel, and even reflectorizing are now showing up on Mags.
Show chroming alone can cost in the $100s.

And there's even more than just annodizing/chroming/pc'ing/reflectoring. You can customize mill or carve parts for your mags for a certain theme if you want to. Just look at tysonmachdo(sp?) he's doing a whole business of cool custom parts.
