    In the case of Palmer though I seriously doubt 20% of his income actually comes from sale of markers, I would guess Cocker parts and the Stabalizer amount for 80%...

          When Tom went to AO Cal he said they might be discontinued. I just got a PM from a vendor who WOULD know, and that person stated they were discontinued.

            Guys, I have made it clear to many people around here we are completely revamping our product line. The concept is "out with the old"

            That means all the stainless parts are going as I have said before. The Flatline has been on low production for a long time. We only kept it around because it had interchangable parts with the military gun. It will be fased out too.

            We are trying to ONE, get rid of the Mag name and connotations and TWO, become more focused on fewer products.

            For the near future we will be making:
            Tac-ones
            RTpros
            Warp Feeds
            and lots of accesories.

            Everything else is going.

                  Don't worry, LX will be around. The RTP valve is the only upgrade for the classic valve, it's called the Xvalve and it'll be around (both the RTP and the Tac one use it).

                  Don't sweat it, all the parts are still available to make your mag as pimp as mine, and my mags's pretty pimp

                    I just want to point out that Tom said "For the near future." So, let's just be patient and see what comes out before we act like old ladies at a sewing circle.

                    But, I do have a question, will they still provide tech support the older designs?

                      Thats the great part about the AGD line, STUFF INTERCHANGES so no worry about not having accesories. Yes we have always done tech support for old stuff.

                        Here is what saddens me - I have seen TK state, if I was making a gun for me it would do this

                        If I was making a gun for you, it would look pretty...


                        If we take option 2, AGD is not what it was. AGD has always led by building ahead of the industry, not behind it. Option 2 will tell me that Tom is sick of what the industry has become and looking for a buyout, not that I blame him, but it will be a loss. At that point I will seriously look at markers to see what goes in my bag next year.

                        If we take option 1, I beleive we have turned a corner in AGD - I will be sorry to see the e-mag fading, I will keep mine as it will be as great as it ever was, but I will aslo put this new thing in my marker bag beside it.

                          Just to reassure me here...you don't intend to drop the name "automag", just change the public image. Right? Or is there serious intent to move away from the 'mag name/brand/style?

                            A step in the right direction. The industry is really collapsing right now.

                                There are a lot of people (not on this forum) who think a Mag is an old stainless gun. No matter what we do they will always believe that. If they hear "Tac-one" they have to find out what it is before they diss it. Make sense?

                                I say a lot of things on this forum. After all it's where I come to test the pulse of the market. On occasion I try to incite a debate by taking a stab at something. Remember the Crown Point Barrel thread? Watching the ensuing argument helps me get a handle on how you feel. One of the big things is the proportion of looks to technology, I still don't have a reasonable assesment of that.
