looking into building a mag from scratch. what all do i need?

[yeahthatsme]

i want to build a mag from scratch. i was what parts do i need? please dont say inteli and retro and so on. i just need the basics. such as trigger frame, body, body rail, valve( probably gonna be classic. cant afford retro), bolt whats the best for the price? cant afford lvl 10 yet).

thanks

just buy a used mag... in the end it would probibly be cheaper... if your doing it as a project then i cant help you.

[yeahthatsme]

i would like it lots more if i built it myself. anyways the agd store has bodies(50), stock frame (25), rail ( 40). what else do i need?

or i could get all that minus the stock frame and plus an inteli for 205. but i cant find any valves except the retro. any help?

try getting one of those old funky high rise powerfeed mag bodies in the attic


what you need is a valve, bolt, rail, body, bushing, ttwist lock asst, grip frame, screws and a sear assy

[potti]

never, ever, forget to get a rail bushing....

[yeahthatsme]

thanks!! thats what i saw the high rise. i think ( i may be wrong though) that the automag rail has the twist lock and bushing. where can i get a valve? there is only the retro at the agd online store.

Tunaman sells used retro valves for 225$ and new micromag valves(same thing as classic) for 250$.

[yeahthatsme]

too much for me. cheaper to get a regular mag.

[Spray Painter]

ya, valves are really expencive to buy alone. at 888paintball they are over 300 just for a classic valve. you should buy a used mag or a TKO mag b/c there cheap.

[HoppysMag]

find a used on for like 100. iv seen on Ebay and classified forums.

[yeahthatsme]

what about the ans valve? i saw it on i&i sports for 99. and it comes witha bolt

[HoppysMag]

thats just the back reg and bolt not the on/off, Power tube and that stuff i think.

[Spray Painter]

i'm not sure it comes with every thing you would need and i wouldn't put anything non-AGD into your mag

[spazzed]

It's been said before, if it's not AGD, DON'T PUT IT IN YOUR GUN!! With the exceptions of paint & air, naturally ;-)

You've gotta check out Rogue, he's great. IMO, right up there w/ Tunaman

A suggestion of mine, if you're going to build one from parts, is to pick up a Power Tube spacer kit. Although, I was told (by someone I work with) that if I have level 10, I won't have to worry about it. Don't know if that's true, but I still bought a spacer kit, just in case.
