    Good deal?

    A moderatly used Classic Mag- $175 w/AA Barrel?

    How fast can the balls feed because of the gases that blows up the feed?

    if you have an electronic hopper and don't fire really really fast then classic feed won't be much of a problem.
    and that is a preaty good price for a mag

      Sounds like a good deal!! You can still have a decent rate of fire if you have a fast enough trigger finger and an electronic hopper!! The blowback could be reduced if you have a long nose bolt!!!

            Does that reduce the blowback? (Level 10)

              Level 10 eliminates almost all chopping. it very, very, very, rarly chops. not sure if it reduces blowback though

                if blowback means like the kick that the gun gives, then yes, it does reduce it.

                  Blowback would be the gas that pushes the balls back away from the breech after you fire.
                  No, level 10 does not reduce/eliminate that at all.
                  There is no way to reduce blowback. A way to prevent it might be powerfeed or a force feed loading system IE Halo, or Warp Feed.

                      Any way I can make it feed at about 7-8 bps?

                        Get a 12V revolution loader or better and then pull the trigger that fast.

                          Well it reduces it as much as anything else does if not more. As teh bolt is now moving slower at onset of the shot cycle. I do not know if anyone has tried to measure if it actualy has any less blow back as a result of the first stage slower bolt speed or not. Perhaps Tom can wade in on that. But blow back is realy not so much an issue anymore with the introduvtion of level 10 as it allows any effect of a missfed or "bobbled" ball to not get chopped as likely. So makes any blow back negative effect much more managable. So wether it reduces it or not is a moot point.

                            I have a classic valve and I had a standard body til recently .. for the price thats a GREAT deal .. and you can upgrade parts here and there to make it into a beast

                            I think if it has a standard body (no powerfeed) you should upgrade that first and that will help with your rate of fire .. and make sure your using an electronic hopper like they had mentioned.

                            With my Powerfeed body, 12 Revolution and 68/3000 tank I can get off about 8 shots a second since I'm using a single trigger .... just take the time to practice firing fast so you can teach yourself to prevent short stroking.

                            Best of luck man ...

                              Well, the thing is that I would perfer not to have a powerfeed because I sight over the barrel. But the level 10, will make it inpossable or at least unlikely to chop because the bolt wouldn't do it?? It would go back?? Am I kind of right?
