AGD new marker rumor

[lamby]

I was told by a source that there is a prototype AGD marker out there that he was able to shoot (this person has some power in PB, but is not affiliated to AGD)

Thsi new prototype is purely mechanical and uses a pnumatic 3-way to power a small ram that activates the sear. The RT effect pushes the ram back and recocks the gun. The person who shot this said it was the best feeling "micro-switch" ever before he was show that there were no electronics inside the gun.

I do not know if AGD has anything to do with this, or if this is an upgrade from 3rd party suppliers. But what I was told is that it is sweet and rips along the lines of a emag with 1.37 software.

Just to add more fuel to the AO rumor mill

Tom, any insite on this?

I've heard of Nicad (Colin of Deadlywind) doing something similar to that. Sounds interesting to say the least

[mcveighr]

He's never going to get any thing done with all these threads.

Sounds a lot like nicad's pet project.....last we heard of that was this post from him on Christmas eve:

What iv done is developed a hybrid 3-way specifically for this application and yes it is 2oz pull weight and ~.004" travel (thats 0.1mm). Most electro triggers, even some "tuned" ones, have a longer/harder pull. When you say "rip".. you mean shoot fast? cause it does.. and with little effort. I can "two-finger-tap" the trigger up to around 14-15bps.

I havent been saying too much about the project due to some protection processes and some coming work that ill be doing with some companies with it in the near future... and im not just blowing smoke here either.

A Tom + Colin joint effort mech with electro-feel pull + sexy deadlywind body? Oh we can but hope!

....but everyone keep it vewwy vewwy qwiet or SP will patent it before it hits the market

[lamby]

this might be the same thing. If it is, he was showing it off and my source was able to play with it. If not, it sounds alot alike

[Crimson_Turkey]

Thats me too. Colin and I have different ways of creating a valve that is better than most elelctro's trigger pulls.

Mine will come stock on a gun of my design called that I have dubbed the phoenix. Im hoping to be in production in 6-8 weeks.

Gadget, thanks for reminding us of that quote from nicad!

AGD isnt making one right now, or atleast any of us know of

but as far as the pneumatic ones go, Nicad from Deadlywind has made a pneumatic mag, and so has Punisher Customs - and the guy who did the home-brew e-mag conversion


but right now, we can only hope that AGD is going to make something similar to them

[edweird]

I've seen colins... its hella nice.

[Automaggin2]

Sooooo many threads on AGD's phantom gun. I Highly doubt they are developing any new gun, especially since AKA just went down and since SP will probably move on to fight other companies. If AGD was developing a new gun, I think Tom would have hinted us about it by now.



Soooo........I highly doubt AGD will develop a new gun anytime soon. They may come up with custom mags, like the Tac One, but no completly new design.

[edweird]

AGD does not have to make a "all new gun" all they need to worry about is catching the frame up to the current potential of the Xvalve + ULT

Hence why the Emag line is going out of production... its simply old tech that fails to match the uberness that is the Xvalve + ULT.

Once the frame is recreated in the light of current tech the only changes I see in the future are more sluggo bodies with possible split beam ACE holes bored up the sides.

[Glickman]

hybrid cockermag sounds like... ive only seen homemade ones, but they are sweet

I wanna give AGD and Tom credit for not trying to merge into the usual electro style, theres so many imitations out there, but how many imitation emags or mags do you see?

[Ov3rmind]

Mags with pneumatic triggers are the future for AGD, mark my words.

[nippinout]

TK says that his idea is better than Nicad's.
