Why do people think mags are heavy?

[JEDI]

Mags are pretty heavy. I think The X is the only mag that is surprisingly light... Other than any other custom ULE mag. Your average Emag with a no rise is like a brick.

I'm not a "wuss" who needs a light gun, but when I stand around all day from feild to feild at a tournament, I get sick of the gun in my hand. At the Global series, I sware I've got a cocker in my hands for about 8 straight hours.

maybe.....

way back in the day some people would use the 114 dinosaur tanks that almost equaled the size of the mag, which therefore made it hella heavy.

Beh, Mags are light...

If you started with a VM like me.

[Tyril]

hahaha.

I've got a Emag with a steel minimag body, SS Dye 12", 114/4500 tank, and a lug of a hopper. Full my setup is capable of intimidating the smaller of newbies =)

It must weight 11 lbs or so.

But, I'm 5' 7" 150 lbs, and have no problem snap shooting with the best of the plastic guns.

Guess it's all in the perception of the player.

My old school RT with its 114ci on it was like a cinder block, then again it was a cinder block that could throw more paint than anybody else on the field.

The smaller tank (68ci) helps a lot, but its still a hefty gun

you'd be surprised. i own a true ULE emag, minus the body(still SS). it almost the exact same setup as the tunamax....anyway, i did a weight test in person against tom's xmag. i wont repeat what he said, but the surpised look on his face stood in my favor. this was way before the xvalve was available to the public, so i was using a retro valve, and waaay before the ULE bodies even hit the drawing board. i truly believe that this had some bearing on tom's decisions to move forward with ULE production, because ULE was vitrually unheard of at the time.

ULE rails were out way before xmags were. dur:P

when i held Tom's Xmag, with flatline, and halo, andd warp, it was lighter than my warp classic mag, with revy and tank.

if you're someone who plays scenarios like me, the weight gets to you after awhile

:-D my gun weighs around 12 lbs full with a warp revy and 88 ci tank full i weight 10 stones and 11 pounds so its not that bad i love the weigh and am 5' 7" high real men can carry heavy guns but im also a mid player so...

go buy a car battery and hold it out in front of you with arms extended, tell me how long you can hold it there. then we'll determine how big yours are

And when I see someone getting 10 BPS with a car battery that he's playing with in 3v3 speedball I'll be impressed. But until that day I decline the car battery litmus test on the weight of paintball gun
