      Man thats amazing. I have never, EVER seen a president of a company start re-producing an old product, ESPECIAL in paintball, just becuase some people on the forums want them. Thats just total company-dedication to the player. AGD needs to start up a shoe line or something. (AGD's, now available at footlocker... "Total dedication to paintball players") Like those Vans commercials.. lol.

        Pre-Orders.

        Anyone else think they should be taking pre-orders ASAP, it would surely ensure we get enough sold to make it worth while, and it would prevent AGD from risking losing the money -IF- people don't follow through on their claim, with the pre-orders, the money made could be put towards the production of the new run, and if things go ary, AGD still breaks even because none of the companies money was put out in the first place. Just a thought. :)

If I have the money when they come out I'll get one.

                I already made a post about this in the friendly forum but here I go again


                You should not preorder a z-grip unless you are absolutely certain this grip is right for you. I will share my positive experiences later but you will see how some ease into this section as well later. I think you should play with the grip on several occasions and in several scenarios before you decide to buy it. It is generally much harder to run with than a normal .45 frame. It will never be AS EASY to move with as a .45 frame. That's just the way it is. Adding a foregrip with a modified extender makes it a bit easier to handle. Usually I am forced to put the safety on when I am about to make a run to prevent shooting my self or a teammate. The pull is VERY short when used with a ReTro valve. The z-grip has a lot of hype associated with it. I believe this is because they have become rare. Only about 500 of them exist. You will find that most z-grip owners will brag about the performance and how rare they are. A lot of people on this forum are buying into this hype without any real knowledge of it other than you can play tighter with it. This is true. DON'T buy into all of the hype. Z-grip owners will pump it up because they own one. There are some exceptions, and you know who you are. Army doesn't/can't brag about his
                z-grip ......................well because it was pink.


                Now on to my positive experiences with it. It is much easier to snap shoot with. It becomes even easier when used with an offset tank. It reduces your profile tremendously(with practice). You just have to adapt. You will either adapt within 3 days of good solid play or you will never adapt. Adapt meaning it will become comfortable............not that it will instantly make you a better player. Becoming better will take practice. The pull on the frame is nice and short. It is a nice frame but it is still hard to run with no matter how you look at it. I have gotten use to it and I'm okay now but don't cheer for the z-grip unless you know what you are really dealing with. I didn't make this post to upset anyone. These are just my opinions about the situation.


                I fell in love with my z-grip on a fluke. I was just lucky that I liked it for the $125 I paid.

                  I am already saving to buy a extream ACE, so now I can add somthing else to the list. I have my old valve still (have a retro/hypermag now) and could easily get my paws on a rail and body for a BRAND NEW Z! The gears are turning in my head as we speak!

                        will the Z-grips be re-made to accomodate a foregrip without modification? (I.E. foregrip extender) This is the only suggestion i can make to make the Z-grip even better.

                            don't even get me started on that. Tuna has stock piles of unopened AGD products. I got my z-grip from him 6 months ago.

                              Pre-orders and/or deposits sound great.. but it's gonna be quite a while til any of this happens, guys.

                                Two words: OY YEH

                                I have always wanted a Z-grip, and now they are even better than before. Can you believe, a Intelli Z-grip?!?! I can't tell if I'm dreaming or not. Someone please pinch me.

                                I will definately order one, no matter if it is black (preferibly) or nickel. If it is nickel, I just might have to send it to Redrider, but at least I'll be getting one.

                                Heehee, I feel as giddy as a school boy.
