hmm, i say thats got to be the best looking mag ive ever seen! even BETTER than the xmag, i take it in a heart beat
you sure wont be chopping any balls with that setup!

that's ok..everything is on order..I'll be good to go..

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Well..it's a week later and here's the update. Just got in the mail today:

X-Valve
Polished H/R MiniMag body (w/ Pump Slot! Yeah!)

and picked up at PanAm LA this past weekend:
14" CP 1-piece barrel
KaliburTech DuraSleeve to keep the Flatline Nice and Pretty

I'm anticipating a full run of stuff by this weekend so I should have the finishing pics by then. I am working on a little sister for this gun..another mag improvement project..but I'm going to put a "Y-grip" on the next one so I won't be in any hurry..here's an update pic

(and for those wondering about the Stainless hose going nowhere..that's because I can't get the darn thing unscrewed from the vertical adapter..but it's getting replaced anyways because the vertical screw the goes through the rail is almost stripped out..so oh well)

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Well..here's an updated picture. Now I've added these parts I've gotten from RogueFactor:

Intelliframe
New Rail
New AGD Bike Tread Gas Thru Grip

Next up is a Blue ULE frame. Woot Woot!!

It shoot good yet?

Very nice, BTW ive seen that stand quite a few times. hint hint;) j/k man, im thinking of either getting a new angel speed, a black magic, or one of those basically as my next setup.

[DiRTyBuNNy]

well..it didn't shoot too bad this past weekend..I was having LX issues but i guess I won't be able to find out till next week if I was right. I've sold that Mini body and I've got my ULE coming in on Monday..so I'll be ready for next weekend..

you have too much money on you hands db, if ya want you can lend me some

[EsPo]

trade for an imp?

Can I ask a stupid question? Why do people find an old mag, and part by part replace everything. Then call it a Mag project. Dont take this as offensive or what ever, but why bother with the old Mag base? Whay not just say. "look I'm building a Mag with all new parts." The last picture you posted isn't the same gun as the first pic. In fact, unless you sold the old parts, you probably have parts for two mags. I can understand if this "new" gun kept the same old valve. I just dont understand the idea that you've tweeked an old gun. You basically just slowly bought a new gun.

...and people thought I was rude and a jerk...

[Skoad]

he called it the "old school mag improvement project"

i'd say he improved an old school mag.....so the problem is?:confused:


oh yea and bunny, do you have any idea who makes that foregrip? i have the same one except i have a wierd color of the rubber grip, i was hoping to find out if i could just buy replacement grip somewheres...

[xadamx]

that thing is DARNED sexy looking. one question though: whyd you switch from an evoII to an revvy!?!? pure crazyness if you ask me

Well yeah, you are rude and a jerk. I even went as far as saying I wasnt flaming you. I was just trying to understand what you were doing? I'm just making an observation. Didnt you basically start out with one gun, and replace everything on it? Wouldnt it have been better to just buy Mag peices one by one. If you have a wooden boat, and you replace each board one by one, when your done, is it still the original boat? Jeez, I was just adding some conversation to your thread. I appologize for not OOOOing and AHHHHing your Mag.

When Vila Finishes a house renovation, there are still several aspects of the old house that remained intact. I'm an architect, theres a difference between Renovation, and Tear-Down Rebuild. I can improve on an old school Tippmann, by selling it and Buying a Mag. Does that mean I still have a tippmann?
