Well if you planning on buying new, you can ONLY get an RT-pro, but used you can find the old RT's for cheap.
I'd go with an RT-Pro simply because they can accept upgrades that the old RT can't. If you get an old RT, you can't get an Xvalve, ULE body, or ULE Trigger pull kit. The old RT is essentially a "dead" marker. AGD will be offering a trade in kit though, if you send in an old RT body and Valve, along with $350, they give you an X-valve and ULE body (along with the shims needed to get those to work on the old RT rail).
Did any of that make sense? I hope so

Don't get an RT classic, it isn't worth it anymore. Most of the time it misses out on all the new cosmetic and weight mods. No new rails, no new bodies, etc.

But aside from the ULT (and some RT-Pro's can't get this...), thats ALL it misses out on. Functionally the old RT and RT-Pro will be the EXACT same. The RT-Pro just has the ability to get the cosmetic mods. Besides, the RT classic isn't a Brick. The weight savinges aren't THAT much... heck, an X-Valve only weighs 3 oz less then the RetRo... and seriously, 3 oz? thats not much to complain about.Originally posted by FooTemps

Oh, the other thing is that the RT PRo comes STOCK with an Intelliframe, while the Old RT's came with a carbon fiber one... most people have upgraded to a different frame for the RT's now... AGD still sells old RT Intelli's too.Hey Zero, how much did that Chipley cost ya?

Well, as an RT/Pro owner, I'd have to agree with who ever said that the RT is essenrtially a discontinued marker. You'd be better off with a Pro. After all they are making upgrades for it, and just think you could get the ULE Body, a ULE rail from Rogue, and a ULE trigger and have an --- kicking Mag. Just make sure that the RTP has an X valve and LX kit installed in it...Giant flying dogs are gonna give you a flame-thrower enema!!!

I'd go with the old RT. They have the best looking bodies anyway. ULE this, and ULE that, all it does is save weight. Tell anyone I've bunkered, or anyone I've waxed with my old RT that it was an out-dated gun, and I'm sure they won't care. It did the job. One of the best functioing markers I've ever owned was an old skool RT. I'll stand by them no matter what. I'd just say forget all the ULE junk, and the x-valve, and go with the old RT. Built like a rock, and it will do it's job. I personally don't really care too much if my gun is "pretty" or not. as long as it hits the target, I'm happy.Formerly ~WarpedRT~

I am a proud owner of an rt. I will admit that the rtp has more options but what it's missing is the uniqueness a rt has. If your planning on getting (eventually) a spiffy looking light weight gun with al the newest upgrades get an rtp. But consider this. With an intelliframe and a level 10 an rt can sling paint with the best of them. Also you can bet that 9:10 times no one else at the feild will have one

If they both function essentially the same, you'd have to be ignorant to purchase the gun that a company has discontinued. Don't buy a gun because its different and rare. Its fine that people like their old school RT, but they own them already. Buy an RTpro, and whether or not you care ubout upgrades, you know its still fully supported by AGD. Dont put yourself at a disadvantage by buying a gun that has no suport. Trade in doesn't = support.
If some how AGD comes out with some unbelievable upgrade, that you find yourself really wanting, you may be screwed with an older discontinued gun.

it would be stupid to buy a rt cus it has nothing to offer that the rtp doesn't, but with the rtp u can get many more upgrades, only thing a rt has over a rtp is rareness cus most likely no one on the field will have one but if u look at it that way y not bring a brass eagle talon, i bet u no one else will have that on the feild
