But it kills me that something this beautiful costs SO much. anyone else agree? I know you said it was ball park of 1100, if the didnt include anno, then you are around 1300 for a mech mag, new. I may be wrong in thinking that is ALOT of money, but that is just me.
Once again, beautiful!!!

Prices for new parts of the top of my head
X-valve 325
Dallara 265 (comes with 2 AGD detents)
Anno 235 (including shipping)
Frame 115
Kilauea Ball Detents * 2 50?
CCM Neck 40?
CP Forgrip + VA 50?
ULT 50?
That totals 1130, and should be pretty close.
It is a lot for a mech mag(specially one I probaly won't keep after my Karta is done), but I have spent just as much in the past building cockers from the ground up.
The best way to do something similar, is to find a mag to buy, and do what I did, part out what you don't need. Look for markers with ULE bodies, barrels, airsystems, anything you can sell to get some of your money back.
I've done the same thing with my Karta project, and in the end it will have cost me much less then the X-mag it will perform like(and look better than, IMO)
