      that would ruin the reason of the lvl 10

            efficiency
            did anyone say efficiency?
            efficiency
            ok you already said it but it's probably the mags biggest flaw so i'll reiterate
            mags are gas hogs while other guns(no i didn't say all other guns...) seem to be getting more and more efficient

            the star trek grips on a stock classic mag... ya it's also already been said but no on called them star trek grips...


            i can't think of anything else that hasn't already been said

              I'll view this as everything in the company and if there is anything that needs to be change it would be marketing. I know even Tom admits that.

              Even though I prefer the twist lock alot of people want the barrels to use autococker threads.

                Uhh.... HELLOOO SFL Emag??? Not perfect ya know, even though it looks that way, heh...

                Mainly common things about the Electro board, covering EMags, SFL Emags and Xmags.

                -Game Timer is kinda pointless, wish it either made audio alert or vibrated or sumtin (Programable up to 35min ? um... yah ).
                -Total Shot Counter Resets when battery completely dies
                -Shots since last turned on? Never bother to use for any real purpose.

                Ace Mode and programable BPS menu's are mandatory.. but I could live without the rest of the Menu's Options.. (and people wonder why I will never buy an Angel... when are you gonna find time to Text Message a Teammate while ur on the field.... seriously ?? )

                  I agree with PsychoBaller.

                  When you buy an $800 electro, it should have an ACE STANDARD!

                    OK, having owned an XMag, let me throw in some thoughts on those:

                    - the grips are just plain terrible.
                    - I really don't like the way the barrel holds in the breech module- i just didn't feel good cranking down on the barrel as much as it needed to hold the breech steady.
                    - the wiring inside is WAY fragile.
                    - GAS HOG
                    - it would be cool if there was a way to just plug in and charge the battery w/o having to remove it.

                    Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of positives, but this thread was for negatives...

                    oh, and I disagree with the ACE standard crowd.. I think ACE is a lot of hype and added cost- with a good loader, you should never have much problem with feeding... add lev 10 and you're pretty much covered.
                    sigs are overrated.

                      the only problem that cant be fixed is that fact that theyre gas hogs. It is bad.

                        The only thing I can think of that hasn't been mentioned is making a soft finger groved gel grip to go on the batery packs of the e/x mags.

                            What about the orig. rt?
                            heres one flaw with the origonal rt, it's incompatibility with most upgraded parts.

                              You should clump togeather the mini and the clasic because they are basicly the same gun. I think AGD should come out with more differnt guns. All the markers run off the same valve and have mostly the same internals. The Xmags costs hundreds more but the only real difference from an Emag is weight, and an eye that isn't needed(lvlX).
