    Once again, beautiful!!!

    That total included the anno..

    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)

              This was the result we were hopping for when we came out with the SLUG bodies. Bland tube to total hotness and darn near one of a kind! Best of all it's custom coolness still keeps the Made By AGD seal of approval.

              Fantastic looking marker!

                For those who are cringing at teh $1000 price tag... Think about some of the "custom" mechanical Autocockers. Before the E-Cockers became the big thing some of those super milled mechnical cockers were over $1000. I can't imagine you'd get that much anymore but still.

                  felony -- Sorry, no process pics. I meant to, but I rarely had all the begining parts at the same time, and if I did I was usually packaging them up to be sent out again.

                  In all seriousness, it was TK's personal ULT'd Mech Mag that I got to shoot as AO-SE II, that made me start this project. I have never been able to shoot a Mech mag until the release of the ULT.

                            Nope, I'm keeping the basic DYE's, I really like them.

                            As far as the no-rise, nope, that is going on the Karta. The Dallara is being feed by a Revy, so no no-rise for it.
