    Also, I played this weekend with Illinois state, and a friend of mine had LX in his rt. Now given I was chopping paint as well, more than him in fact, but he was still chopping quite a bit. Lets not act like it ONLY chops on oddly shaped paint, and I'm sure it was tuned properly...
    The only time I was able to chop paint was in the scenario I gave. I routinely short stroke, even MORE now that I have a level 10 bolt. I would question whether the bolt was tuned for very brittle paint. Based on Manike's testing, you would have to have some VERY brittle paint with a "tuned for very brittle paint bolt" to break it. Manike was not breaking zero bounce from two feet paint.

    All of this said, level 10 in an electronic triggered, ACE protected marker is a small advantage. But it is still an advantage, however small. Where it becomes a big deal is in a mechanical marker, but that is NOT what this tread is about.

        What I am trying to say is that you don't have to prove anything, only state your reasons for believing it is better. That's what I believe I have done. I didn't repeat cphilip's explaination of why level 10 is the easiest on paint since he did such a fine job. Do you believe that the Angel is BETTER than the Emag? If so, why?

        BTW, I can't tell if you are getting upset or not. I'm not interested in a "pissing contest". If this upseting people, I'll quit.

                ahhh what happened to one of my posts,

                anwyays, i tried to edit out my sig and i guess i deleted my post


                im sure i messed everything up now

                i suck at this whole internet thing
                ok here is what was original said:::::::::::::::::

                lets not forget that manike is a pro when it comes to this sort of thing, i doubt very much that Joe Automag can tune his LX to be the same as manike like i cant tune my angel like TAG can

                thats just how it goes


                i ask for proof because arent people here obsessed with it? dont we have a "roundtable" forum or whatever? im just curious as to what makes lx better for a fact


                no, im not angry i just want to know some things, i dont mean to annoy anyone, im only asking questions, i have not said what gun i think to be better, altho some of you can guess, i think the gun can only go so far, so what difference does it make if ive go dohicky J on my gun or not?

                  Sure, Manike is a pro. However, I believe that I can tune it to be just as easy on paint as he did. IF I ever chop a paintball I'll give it a try.

                  Yes they are. However, that is not what this thread was intended to be about. All I was looking for are reasons why. No proof necessary. I think the level 10 bolt is the easiest on paint, based on my experiences and some of what I have read here. I think that gives the Emag a slight advantage. If anyone else thinks another marker has something that gives it an advantage over the Emag, say so, and why.

                  Great! The forum has been slow (pun intended) lately and I was looking for a good debate, sans flames. I love harassing my buddy who has an Angel. Last time we played he chopped a ball. In a serious voice I said, "You should be a level 10 for that", and then, "Oh yeah, YOU CAN'T". I did later give him a line I got from here, "Angels only suck when you can't afford one"! That shut everyone else up!

                    the selling point on my emag wasnt the lvl 10. it wasnt the small profile. not because of the reliable simple design of mags. it wasnt because of the solid construction or even that i am a die hard mag fan.
                    it WAS because it has the option to go mechanical. ive never seen any Angels, imps, etc with that ability. I dont trust circuits and i have seen plenty of electros go nuts. if my emag board goes nuts in a game all i have to do is cut the power and flip a switch.
                    That is why I think my emag is better than your angel.
                    i dont like signatures. so i turned them off. AO is much better this way.
