    If the E doesn't stand for eye, disregard this...
    Yeah, that's what I thought... But dont call it MAC, becuse that would prolly be some kind of legal thing w/ Macintosh computers.

    Plus, MAC's Suck.

      Since, with the lvl 10, automags really don't need the ACE, why don't we use that name for the lvl 10. AGD could call lvl 10 the Automag Chop Eliminator Bolt, or A.C.E. Bolt. That way we have the A.I.R. valve and A.C.E. bolt. Of course, this all rides on whether or not the Anti-Chop Eye is going to be made and I don't know the answer to that question. Just my 2 cents.

      One last thing, Automag could be replaced with Airgun if people thought it sounded better.

          I don't like MACE for reasons previously stated... specifically the fact that the 'E' is completely unwarranted.

          I don't have any ideas for acronyms, but here are some phrases/words that might be incorporated into acronyms: low impact, variable speed, pressure sensitive, featherweight, uhh that's all I can come up with at the moment. :o

          I think it's a bad idea to advertise the mag as having an ACE/MACE when there are plenty of other guns with an ACE. Note how the IR3 got attention for the COPS simply because it was a different way of preventing chops, and WDP drew attention to that. So I think the acronym shouldn't have ACE or even AC in it.

            as said before there is no eye. I dont care about it possibly being politically incorect but I and the 5 people here to vote say the best was just simply calling it level 10. Its unique to AGD and sounds great. PLust thats what every one already knows it as. If the population comes up with other slang let them but leave it up to them.

            So 5 votes for level 10

                Instead of "MACE" which is for "Mechanical Anti-Chop Eye", what if it was the "MACH-10" System, or "Mechanical Anti-Chop breacH", because the bolt vents the air to prevent chopping, and the "10" can denote Level 10. And it doesent sound like you are going to impale anyone

                  Im sorry but MACE and MAC sound...wrong. MACE you think that you have a freaking ball with spikes in your gun. MAC you think you have a computer in the gun. LX hits the mark.

                  LX is a good name for it, but some more should be made to have more options for a official name for it. Something different from all the rest, but not too farfetched to have people scratching their heads. And one that appeals to the public in general and not just to Automag users and AO. If you find a name that fits all that, well then you got a name. I like LX, its a keeper.

                    MACE makes me think of something smashing something.. the opposite of what the LVL 10 does.

                    THere are hundreds of acronym-inmal possibilities here

                      Um, I think it should be noted that Tom stated that
                      We would still call it LVL10 for the product name
                      So it's not that he's replacing the LVL 10 name with this anacronym. Instead I think he's looking at naming a specific type of part. This would imply that you could use something similar on other guns. Therefore you don't really want to put anything specifically related to automags or airgun in it.

                      I think that if you can get away with it M.A.C. may not be too bad.

                      eh, just my words.

                          I think mechACE is cool, posted by LittMag...

                          To me MACE sounds a little off, if you know what Im saying. I mean MACE makes me think of pepper spray and honestly it just doesnt fit.

                          It is a mechanical ACE so it could be mACE or m-ACE to avoid the confusion with MACE, and the fact that it reminds me off actual mace. It could even be LeveL-X or LeveL-X or LX but mechACE sounds cool

                            I like it!!

                            I think the name is great!
                            What would be better is a picture by picture breakdown of the installation like you have for the Intellifeed hook up at the on line store. I almost bought a Level 10 yesterday, but wasn't sure if I c6ould install it myself.

                              Wrong idea.

                              ACE stands for Anti Chop Eye. There's an eye because there's a sensor which detects the ball in the breech.

                              So there's no sense to give the name MACE to the lvl10 .

                              Call it LX, it sounds a lot beter in my opinion.

                                LX has a certain ambiguity about it which makes it MYSTICAL AND MYSTERIOUS!!!!#111

                                MACE always makes me think of either dungeon master geeks, (you could always call it Level 10 MACE, for the full geek effect) or cavemen.
