    A marketing idea for AGD

    My suggestion is to assemble the following into a new gun release for AGD to bring it back into the mainstream.

    1) ULE Vertical Body
    2) New Rail (when finished)
    3) X-Valve
    4) Inteliframe
    5) Custom Barrel

    Simple, yet the sleek nature of these pieces and the great reputation of AGD equipment and company should sling this new combination into a mass market quickly, as a replacement to the classic's which are being sold currently.

    What do you all think?

    I'd love to see Automags become a high volume sale again.

          In that price range, it will never be a high volume sales item.

                  IMO, this is what agd should do

                  Ule body
                  old rail
                  classic valve(maybe lvl 10)
                  intelliframe
                  Some decent barrel
                  Foregrip
                  Price:350-400

                  That would directly compete with stock cockers and imps

                    So much has changed on the RT already. if all those parts are changed, changing the name from RT-Pro to X-Pro or something, and marketing it as the newest, fastest, and lightest would make some major sales.

                      only thing i would say is use a ULE rail no milling just aluminum

                        They have a 2 piece J&J barrel now.

                        They come with everything that you want, except the new rail, as pointed out by EsPo. I would love to see more people buying these guns, and it would be in area of competition with Black Magiks.

                          i think the "RT" part of the "RT Pro" name scares most consumers. i know that as soon as i hear "RT", i automatically think of "reactive trigger" .. which is most closely associated with tippmann's. most people don't like RT, they feel it's cheating.. if you changed the name to X-Pro or something, i think it would help..
                          Tom_Kaye: well it would have been nippinout
                          Tom_Kaye: but like an idiot he said
                          Tom_Kaye: I love tubgirl
                          Tom_Kaye: we cant seem to let go of that chick

                              I'd like to see them release a mag with these specs:

                              All alluminum classic valve.
                              level 10
                              Iframe
                              Ulebody and rail.

                              And have it retail for around $350. It would compete with the new line of autocockers more directly. Wgp knew what it was doing when they made verticle feed and double tiggers standard.
