IM SOOO sorry everybody, please forgive me!!!!

[AutomagBoy]

I went to buy paintballs at my local retail store. Well, the owner was fixing his own angel so i told him "angels aren't the best". He looks up at me, walks to the wall grabs an ir3 and some nitro, gasses it up and tells me to fire it as much as i like. I fell speachless I didn't know what to say to defend mags. I know their better, but i didin't know what to say. So I fired it a couple times and still knew mags were better, but i just couldn't work out the words. I'm sorry if any one in their heart to forgive me i'll be eternally grateful!

Speachless huh? Its hard to argue something that isn't entirely true. Mags rock. I love them. I would LOVE an x-mag (though some efficency upgrades would be nice...)

There are a lot of REALLY well built guns out there. Angels happen to be in that group, along with lots of other markers.

In other words: Never pass up a chance to keep your mouth shut. :) Our lesson for the day!

Yea i know my mag dont even compare to my friends dark ir3

Nothing wrong with that! You got to shoot a high end marker and for fun. You just need to learn to get your tounge back and hand it back and say very cooly..."Well thats nice"

See, that's the problem. Don't go picking fights, persay, with people about whose gun is better. It's a lost cause. However, if someone were bashing mags, then yeah, you would need to know stuff about mags if you were to defend them. I have an e-mag, I love it, I've shot (not owned unfortunately ) a bunch of different guns, and I really like my e-mag. I'd love to shoot a 'trix, timmy, angel, imp, or a shocker, but I can't really afford a switch right now.

Anyway if you want to defend mags, it's always good to know the features of AGD's best marker, the x-mag. First off, it's lighter than a fly angel. It has manual, hybrid, and e-modes, which no other gun has. It also has the x-valve, which has a recharge rate tested beyond 26bps without shootdown. It can be shot without a battery. It has an ACE (anti-chop eye) and the level 10 anti-chop bolt, stock. It also has interchangeable feed modules. The board is capped at 16bps with the ACE off and 20+ with it on. The e-magnum board (morlock board) can be set at basically an unlimited bps, too. Can't forget that it has a magnetic trigger, either.

well, technically, if you were doing agd's best marker, you would have to say sfl olny reaons being, is it goes up to 24 bps:) or you could say sfl with x-valve.... but ten we would have to call you load :)

Well, technically, the SFL is a Shocktech marker, but, who's checking?

And funny, I must've missed that memo, too, same with the majority of other paintball players Angels rock, no denying it, but I'm not going to say they are the best.

Thats an excellent point. He was challenged to show you it was a good marker. And you should have known that it was. You can like some things about it and some things about the high end Mags too. A lot of people do. But to get so general with him as to say ALL Mags are better than an iR3 might be going a bit to the limit where he felt you had to at least take one in your hand. You may come away with the feeling its better than a classic and not an X Mag and then again you may be sold on one. Thats his job to sell em! So he lost nothing and you learned its a nice marker. You may not be convinced to buy one.

And since you didn't hand him an emag or X mag to counter your initial statement...then what was realy accomplished the other way? Nothing. He may have been truely impressed too. I bet he never gave one a try!

I have a Dark Angel and an X-Mag. I prefer the X-Mag by far but that doesn't mean the Dark Angel isn't also an excellent marker.Is the X-Mag faster? Yes. Does that matter for normal players? No. Both are excellent high end guns. It really comes down to personal preferences. I like the look and feel of the X-Mag. The Angel has a boxy feel but that is my preference. When it all comes down to it, any marker including other X-Mags are just nice shiney targets to me because they aren't my marker. For me the only marker that matters is mine as I suspect it is for most of you. Which is the best. Mine of course (for me any way) and Yours (for you). How's that for pontificating the philosophical?

good point cyberious

Yeah but the SFL is just too heavy when compared to the C&C X-mag...

And software upgrades are easy (if you even come close to the current limits), how are you gonna put that SFL on a diet?
