          Very well put TK , I wouldn't have it any other way . I personally don't mind waiting for a very good product . This is the Lamborgini of paintball markers . Remember , this also prevents flooding of the market . That means your gun will retain it's value better , making it a better investment in the long run .

                    SFL Emags are no longer made by Shocktech. There are about 50 or so in circulation. Have to find them on the used market. (Good luck )

                      You are SO on my Christmas card list this year!!!

                      Damn proud to be AO!!!

                      As I have stated many times before, the Xmag has an almost impossible list of processes that it must go through to get made. The C&C sculpting of the body is the worst since it takes 2600 passes on the mill to complete one body. Output is about 6 bodies a day not including modules. They are hand poslished and hand anodized. This is not some Taiwan extruded lookalike, its more like 50 year old whisky that you don't want to let age.

                      Our production schedule is currently limited to 75 per month for the foreseable future. While it seems that demand is so high that we could instantly sell thousands of them I know from being in this business for 14 years that new product demand fades as quick as yesterdays news. I predict that after the next two batches they will be much more available.

                      I am going to assure you that these guns will NEVER be sitting around on your dealers shelf waiting for you to save up the money. They are much too expensive for us to inventory so demand will always exceed supply. If you can't wait PLEASE go buy something else. This gun is for people who appreciate owning something that was painstakingly made by a manufacturer that takes the time to talk you and has to be accountable for what they produce. This marker represents my company and most importantly me personally and I am not going to cheapen it up just to bang them out the door.

                      Thanks for your patience,

                        My friend thinks the same way , thus why he prolly will go ir3 over a xmag because of the wait time.

                              yep. And thats unfortunate. If im 14 and dont know a damn about qulaity, and i walk into a PB store and ask whats the best marker tey got and they tell me, well, this EBlade 'Cocker, this IR3 and an Xmag we can have in two months for you, sadly, im not going to pick the XMag if I have to wait two months

                              sad but true, because in the long run, id be happier with the Xmag

                                Kevmaster, is it a two month wait though? Some of these guys have waited almost a year =)
