magnetic frames

[magzown3]

I think that agd should come out with a replacement frame for the automag classics and rts that works with magnets, just like the emag. That seems like it would be a good idea. Maybe an intelliframe with magnets, i dont know.

medusa frame anyone?

i don't remember if they're released yet, but there was a really long thread about it...

The RT and the Classic return the trigger to its original position, so adding magnets to do that job will only make the trigger pull heavier, like adding a return spring to an RT or classic.

As for adding a magnetic actuator like the HES on the E-Mag that is available as an upgrade - it's the E-Mag factory conversion, since in order for the electronic signal to fire the 'gun you also need the solenoid, battery, electronics and new sear that are on the E-Mag.

The Medusa frame is a pivoting trigger frame designed in such a way that the same frame and trigger can be installed on an Autococker or an Automag. It has a magnetic return system that eliminates the need for a trigger return spring when used on an Autococker. When used on an Automag, that does nothing but make the trigger pull heavier, since a 'mag supplies all the trigger return force necessary, through gas pressure on the on/off pin translated to the sear and out to the trigger.

is there a way to make the return snappier on the classic valve?

Well, the higher your velocity, the faster/harder the trigger comes back, but the same goes for the trigger pull. The retro/x valve is what you want if you are looking for really snappy trigger pull/return
