    Just a though...

    Not going to happen.. but just an intersting idea..

    talking to a fellow AOer..

    AGD should make a crappy talon like thing. Like a plastic Sydarm without the reg or something. Something cheap, worthless, that would help bring in more people into the game like BE's stuff, but doesn't break.

        that would be a good idea, like a sydarm 2. it would introduce people into paintball and how good AGDs products are, and gain a lot of publicity

            is a spyder compact 200? then again, you also have to buy a barrel, hopper, bottomline and co2/n2 ...

              Good sense...

              This makes total sens eot me as well. I played two weeks ago and got 5-10 people very interested in playing. They all wanted to buy a gun, and loved my set up, but hwen they heard of the price, they lost interest in my gun and started looking at the guy witht he Spyder. You can get a package with hopper tank and gun fo under $200 for a decent spyder, even with an electro frame. I know AGD could produce a quality product for less money. Yes you can get a Mag for $200 on ebay, but it will be used. Most peopl eentering the sport will be more attracted by a $200 NEW item rather than a $200 used item, even if the quality is better.

                dude, you can get a whole spyder setup for 200, which include EVERYTHING. Mask, co2, gun, loader, elbow, and most of a chance more. I mean, a TL+ goes for 90 dollars and the spyder classic goes for 60. They even sell a spyder compact start up kit including everything you need to play for 160.

                My friends started out with spyders and piranhas... oh wait, they're still using spyders and piranhas they got when they started. Besides that, they spent relatively low prices getting into paintball. I'm just trying to get the point across that spyders aren't THAT expensive and are a good choice for starting out.

                I check the prices between www.paintballgear.com and www.xpaintball.com .

                  They way to go would be for AGD to design and then outsource the production. It seems to me though, that Tom is too hands on to let someone else make his products.

                      Kinda like the idea of having my friends start PB with an entry level AGD marker. Upgrading to a Mag later on might come more naturally.

                      Back when I had a Spyder, and I was thinking of moving up to a high end marker... if Kingman had something GOOD to offer, I would still be using a Kingman today.

                        When I turned my friends on to paintball they first played with mags. Crap, hahahaha, now they don't want anything else.
