      Seems it's 50/50, some hate it, some like it. I think it sould be an option, so those that don't want it don't have to buy it. Sure it may add $20 to the cost of the gun... that's the cost of a steel braid line. A FUNCTIONAL part of a paintball guna nd not a hood ornament.

      Plus, the holes don't bother me, I got some alan screws and covered mine up.

      Here is my ULE E-mag:

      That's good the plan is to ditch the sight rail once your stock runs up, that's why I made this thread but I guess you came up with the idea before me. I thought that you might think we all LIKE the sight rail. But I had no idea you have 1000 of 'em laying around... damn. Volume business, lol. Can't ya just save 'em for the tac-one?

          Put 'em in a box, and hide them in the proverbial "attic" for awhile. Then do as listed above.

            wait 15 years to sell them. then call them 'vintage' and 'extremely rare' and jack up the price 1000 percent. instant profit.

              Well we could just rename them useless holes to ULE Holes! And then tout it as a feature! I mean... we do need some hype around here...

                ULE holes? we got enough ULE... say the new rail uses HFH Technology, "High Flow Hole Technology". See.. You did it all wrong Tom.. you started with the fastest recharging valve in paintball, you shoulda come out with some accesory later on that made it the fastest recharge.

                Kinda like the "high flow barbs" people install on their Intimidators. And what the hell... free software upgrade? Sell the enture board with the new software for $100!!! Come on! Call it the... WERE board, or something.

                In all seriousness, I just hate having decoration on my gun. Sure use the milling and anno to make it pretty.. but bolting on worthless crap for decoration is just... just wrong.

                Keep the holes in the rail, some want sight rails, some don't, the holes are there for the option, kinda like "Vision Ready" Impulses. Just ship it with screws to fill them up.

                  Rope a Dope has the second slickest looking E-Mag, next to mine. :)

                  If you put a sight rail on his gun, it would go from "smooth" to "cheesy".

                  The "Mag" image has to die if Mags are going to become a mainstream gun, and getting rid of the sight rail is one step in the right direction.
