    well i must say that an emag is better than an imp, but also twice the price. i own a mag and an imp so im not biassed, but i would say get the pulse, new vision, lpr, and a halo b. u could even get a magnetic trigger if u wwanted.

    this will still be less than an emag with lvl 10 and a warp or halo b. your going to get petter performence imo. and emags are just plain ugly. or you could suck it up and get an extreme. they are withought a doubt the best markers ever made

      Dont get me wrong this has nothing to do with WDP sponsorship.
      Do you often forget the name of the company that sponsors you?

      You seem to think that everyone on here is trying to prove that mags are more accurate than cockers, wrong. YOU are trying to prove to us that cockers are more accurate than mags and angels.

      If you like your cocker, great, but just because you did a test with a cocker and a mag doesnt make it anything to base fact on. You need to do the test to 100 cockers and 100 mags that are tuned properly, you will find no difference.

      The level 10 is easy to install and tune, you friend who had problems just made a mistake, no biggie but again, don't base your opinion of the kit as a whole on one of your friend's experiences.

      From your other post that argues the old debate that accomplishes nothing.

      Consistency (Accuracy): Obviously an inconsist gun rising and dropping in fps will alter a balls travel to its target, so this is one of the main factors
      True, however a both guns are perfectly capable of being equally concsistent(it seems the mag you used may of had a bad reg seat or similar problem if it had consistency issues). What comes into play is that fact that a mag(especially RT) will be consistent at a higher ROF unlike the cocker.
      Paint to Bore Match (accuracy): A nice fit will make those balls shoot like darts, and in a tight patter as well
      True. but this has nothing to do with either marker.
      FPS (Range): Higher the fps longer those balls fly, but also more chances of curving and innaccuracy.
      again, nothing to do with either marker.
      Kick (accuracy): Definetly a gun that is kicking hellava lot will throw off a person aiming at a target. So low kick is good so you will constantly be aim'ing at your target.
      the cocker has more reciprocating mass than a mag with a level 10 mod thus should have more recoil.

      Your other arguement is that with a closed bolt system there is no air between the bolt and ball therefore leaving "less play for error", as your comment may lack proof as to a variance even exsisting there is also no air between the bolt and ball on a mag either. Another little comment I would like to add is that with a good paint to barrel match any ball bobble you could argue between a closed bolt and open bolt system would not matter in acceleration upwards of 1,500g's down a barrel at least 8-10 inches in length.
      oh well.... i can never help anyone here on automags.org.
      No I don't know everything, I don't have all the answers but neither do you. Welcome BACK to AO, I'm glad you have decided to bless us with your presence but you must also be open minded, the teacher must also become the student from time to time

        ummm yah you must of caught me before i had editted it. I posted it, read the whole thing over, noticed that i put wdp down instead of wgp and recalled my stupidity cause im sponsored by them and so it seems i messed up there names (it was a typo) So i editted it and it was happy.

        BTW Elephat Chew ?

          Wow, that was an impressive counter argument to Havoc's post. R u a lawyer??? Well, at any means, u r a miracle worker, cuz now I see the light and understand ur reasoning. But i would like to state that when u return from Never Neverland, maybe u can come up with something that has, oh whats the word, substance.


          P.S. I wouldnt fret about the WGP, WDP thing. I cant remember the difference either, the names r just 2 similar. But then again, im not sponsored by them either, so no harm no foul for me.

            1.magman007 - Ok i never said anything bad about the mags,

            2.im not a mag person, but i do like the mags and have nothing against them.

            3.I friggin said nothing negative towards you personally or towards the mag.

            4.And btw im not new, i actually was one of the first ao'ers trust me and had like 2,000 posts or so.

            Alright lets start with quote #1. For your whole posting barage you have done it has been all about how cockers are better then mags. Yet you say youhave no clue about the new things for the mags. Well new stuff matters! How do you compare a mag in 98 to a brand new DYE cocker? Put the guns on level playing feilds. If yur going to compare a new cocker to a mag then do it right. Cmpare it to a mag with the new tech, it's only fair.

            #2. Once again, can understand you don't have anyhing against mags. Then compair them fairly. A lvl 10, intelliframe, Retro valve, mag is going to perform dif. then an older one w/o those things.

            #3 Again, plenty of AO'ers have already said you have flamed them. As someone reading this i thought you were famig too. Worst of all you have no clue how new mags perform

            #4 And last, weren't you the punk who had the stupid name that got changed. Yah thats what i thought. As for the "trust me" part, not goin to happen.
            Minimag body, valve: CF05240, gas-thru grip, all-american, lvl 10, tourney velocity adj., flatline 68/3000 nitro FL01255

              Reo: I can't help but assume that the emag you tried was on M mode. (9 o'clock position) That's about the lenght of the M mode pull on mine. If you have access to it agian flip the selector switch to the 6,or even 3 o'clock position. (without adjustment the marker may not fire reliably in the 3 o'clock position)

              I run mine at 3 and the pull is hella short. I just measured with a set of digital calipers, the bottom of the double trigger moves 1mm on mine.

              As others have said you can play with the magnets to adjust how heavy the pull is. Personally I like my trigger to snap back pretty quick so I have 3 magnets in.

              As for heavy, I wouldn't worry about it. After a few games you'll get used to it. I played with a 114 3k raptor mounted on gun for a while. Only took me 2 days to get used to it.

                hehehehe, i guess i never mentioned that the gun was not:

                Gassed Up
                Charged
                Turned On

                I just want to be sure that this is the right move to make. Your setup sounds awesome. I'll have the money to buy in a week or two so if anyone catches any deals I'd love it if you could shoot me an email or catch me on AIM.

                  Reo:

                  I think VF-XX hit it on the head. The selector switch was probably in Manual. The pull is definately longer in manual. Flip the switch and try again. It wont matter if its on, charged or gassed, you will notice a difference in trigger pull length.

                    I really wanna go back to my store, but that would be my third time trying out the trigger...

                    I feel like Wayne from Wayne's world trying out the fender everyday
