Wasn't aware they'd been out on the open market that long. The earliest Matrix review on PBreview.com was from 2001, and I doubt that it took 3 years before someone wrote a review on one, given the popularity.

It's official release was at the 2000 world cup.

Amen, Brother!

True, but it will always be called cocker threaded.

Very true due to the fact that obviously cocker's started that threading. By listing all those different "high" end markers it gets the communication out that it fits more then just cockers.

RRFireblade - thanks for clearing that up.

though they are the hot stuff now, matrices didn't take off untill too recently. Airtech Industries made the first matrix waaaay back in the day. They got popular when Gen E picked up the owning rights to the matrix.

but I do find it ironic that they called it the "New X mag", since it has been around longer than Matrices and the Ebladed cockers.

still, xmags have been known about since what, 2003? :o

Yeah if you want to consider CnC's as the only "Xmags". But the Emag Extreem, which was essentially the same thing (i.e., cocker threaded, aluminum body, etc.) has been around for a couple of years.

does anyone actually own the other verson of the x-mag? the blocky version? if i could find one i would get that....since everyone chooses the c and c version the block may be a rare marker someday.

The non C&C version is basically a Euro/ADGE exclusive.It's not that they are "rare",there just "rare" to make the trip way over here. There are a few bodies floating around here,but most people prefer the C&C.

You guys just made me realize that my SFL just had it's 3rd birthday this month.

mags and cockers are like a father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roomate. (I love Space Balls).
