FYI the shot counter bug only appeared in Firmware versions 1.31. Those with this version will have the bug those with later versions or updated boards will not.

Well, lets see, first off, batteries don't just "die", they gradually get weaker and you can tell when that starts to happen. Also, if you can't remember to charge your battery then how are you going to be able to keep up an expensive marker like that? I really doubt the battery would go dead for no reason. What I'm trying to say is that if you can't remember to charge your battery then you shouldn't spend 1500+ bucks on a gun.

And, I don't think I've ever seen an Angel break, I know someone with a '95 Adrenaline and it still works fine. If I had the money, I'd probably buy something other than an Angel, but that's just a preference.

I had though about trading my mag for an electro. What stopped be was this. THE MAG IS JUST DESIGNED BETTER! Great innovations like the z-grip, lvl 10, the entire classic mag valve, the warp feed, using Nitro, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc. They don't come from WDP! The mag was made to be better, and it is.

Trigger_Happy, while mags have near perfect designs, they're not better than everything else. Everything shoots 300 fps, and you'll perform better with the marker that feels better in your hands. If I think Spyders are really, (i mean really)comfortable, then I'll play best with one.

That's kind of an extreme example, but apply it to high end guns and you suddenly realize that it's all just tastes and preferences.

Thanks guys, I'd nearly forgotten why I'd trusted Mag's (and their owners) in the first place

Hopefully, the Xtremes will be on sale again in March (or sooner!) and then we can all pick one up. Any word on how many will be produced next year?

Thanks alot,

a 95 Adrenaline Angel? Are you sure it was a 1995?

Anyways, I know of a fair amount of guys here in Wa. that have had boards fry. Some of them even when it wasn't raining. If you have the money burning a hole in your pocket right now. I would go and buy a nice higher end used electro to see how you like it. If you don't you can sell it and get an extreme when they are out. If you don't have the money now, it's kind of a moot point.

Yes, I'm sure it was 1995, because it was pretty big, didn't have an LCD or any kind of anti-chop thing (I learned that after fanning the trigger) and you could feel gas blowing out from around the breach when you fired. It still shot good though.

Interesting... I was led to believe that the prototype I was playing with at the factory in Birmingham in early 1996 was the first angel that there was. Although, not that I think of it, Jacko was out back plinking with another one, but at the time I was told that none had been released, outside of the factory, except to a few of the "chosen". My unfortunate experience with that one has made it difficult to purchase one, even with all the remarkable upgrades they have done.
