    If your gonna get a steel tank, dont pay 120 for it. You can buy a used fiber tank for only 100 bucks or so...

            nothing wrong with them except they are old school. youd have to put an intelliframe, lvl10, x valve/RT valve, ULE body(which requires new barrels)to get it upgraded to the "max" by the time you are done doing that yo uhave 2 mags. just buy all the parts and put it together yourself, cost less in the long run.

              I was gonna upgrade it with a intelliframe,ule body, and an x valve eventually, just dont have enough to buy all those right now and build my own mag

                you can get a used steel tank for between 45-65 $$, id look around used first then look at retail stores, what are your plans for this mag, do you have another gun?, are you just gonna strip piece by piece off for ule stuff and an xvalve? if thats teh case i suggest you just buy it piece by piece and build an ubermag, its really not that hard.

                body
                rail
                rail bushing
                sear and sear pin
                field strip screw
                twist lock(depends on body)
                grip frame
                grip screw
                foregrip(optional)
                foregrip(vert) screw
                barrel\valve

                thats pretty much it right?

                          have tunaman build you a ULE mag with a classic valve

                          he puts on your choice of trigger frame, your choice of body rail, your choice of body, your choice of valve, choice of drop, choice of barrel, etc.

                          hes a very nice person to deal with


                          did i mention that he can custom ano it? (for an price though )


                          don't bother spending $250 on a mag on pbgear that you can find in the f/s/t for $150 or so


                          in the end, you'll just be discarding the WHOLE mag except for maybe the sear or body rail

                          if you buy from tuna, he puts all the parts you WANT it to have, not the parts that you are going to replace


                          just my .02

                            pbgear.com or get a 68/30 FIBER tank for 20 less used on AO, or from me
