        Seriously though.

        Just kidding! BTW, That is an X-Mag!

        Seriously though, get what you like. You'll be the one shooting it. If it shoots well and you think it is cool, well then it is. You are the one who will be taking it home after you play. Take home the one you like better!

        Good Luck!

          The Automag vs. AutoCocker has been done to death.

          ALL the following threads are Cocker vs. Mags. I lost track, but there must be over 500 posts.

          ENJOY!

              OK, you ask.
              If you want to get it right the FIRST time, buy an RT Pro or an E-Mag. Any thing else will be a waste of (YOUR) money.

                Get anything but a mag, there fugly, shoot like ****, and will get made fun of at most fields, cause who wants a mag? Maybe people at these forums, and thats the whole population of mag shooters.

                  yes you NEED to actually physically hold and shoot paint through both and find out wich you personally prefer, my friend and I have been playing paintball for around 4 years and we always got the same guns, raptors, then tippmann, spyder, then when we got to the "next level" we split, we shot both and I liked mags better, he liked the cocker better, were still good friends and still both play and we dont compete or trash talk over whos gun is better....well not that much

                    Dude, calm down. This is like 2 threads that you are going out of your way to flame people and or their markers. Your marker choice is like buying a car. Chevy people say Fords suck and visa versa. Let it go. Flame fests aren't fun to look at.

                    Guess what, I can afford any marker out there and I choose to get an X-Mag! So what does that mean to you...Nothing. I like it and am happy with it and you like your Angel and are happy with it so it's all good. Let this kid pick out a marker he thinks is cool and let him be happy too.

                        i just recently switched to a cocker, and i absolultey love it. the thing shoots darts. i broke one ball in a case, and that was a barrel break cause of crappy paint. i say, if you want change, get a cocker. if your gun works fine or you dont really need change, stick with ur mag.

                          Mags and cockers are both good markers. I've shot both, I personally can't shoot a sliding trigger well so I opted for a mag. The cocker is also a nice gun to tinker with, the mag is just too simple to actually tweak unless you have lvl 10. Both markers have their ups and downs so it's your choice. I would say mag because of my good experience with them.

                          Crog, prove that a well tuned mag shoots like crap. It kinda sucks being a brainwashed marker pusher doesn't it crog? I mean, it sucks besides all the praise and hype you get. Don't flame mags unless you can disprove all of us with solid facts.

                          Guys, don't bother protecting mags. If people believe they suck, let them believe what they want. I mean, we say certain guns suck sometimes too... ok ok, so the real reason behind saying that is because I want to be able to actually get an xmag someday without it being on backorder for 10 years... that and people will be stubborn.
