So it is true that the Europeans have immediate access to the Xmags? Won't AGD Europe ship to the U.S. ? If not, I have all kinds of family in the UK, and it seems that they AGDE site isn't so hung up on unbelievably bright anno, they actually sell an all black! So what's the drawback from ordering from AGD E?

last i heard they just wont ship to the us.. but if u have family.. then Get one! lol

I've seen the patents for the new Shocker, and it's basically a Mayhem inside. A couple little changes, yes, but it's a Mayhem at heart. You could pick up a used mayhem for a helluva lot cheaper than a new shocker... just my 2c. Go Xmag.

Seems that I am most likely going X-Mag. The reason I am in unrest is that the Pre-order list for X-mags are long as hell. If I miss this order, It will be another 4 months to get a mag. So, its kinda crunch time and I need to decide. Once I buy, thats it. Come on now people, Paintball guns are all about the instant gratification. Gratify today, and buy something new tomorrow =). It is clear to me from the research I have seen that closed bolt guns do not shoot any better than opens. But again, why is there such an empahsis placed on low pressure guns these days? Are the low pressures less likely to break in the barrel as the velocity is a slow, increasing impact?
