    Tough First Upgrade (68'Automag)

    Alright Im selling my spyder for 120 april 3rd, and with that money I will either get an Intelliframe, or a Level10 (both are 130 CDN). I know, LX is essential, but the price for the intelliframe is great.

    Any reccomendations?

    Old Narhwals are people too ...
    Grizzly Bears are people too ...
    Caterpillars are people too ...
    Baby Peacocks are people too ...

    If you can get a sweet deal for the Intelliframe, get it while you can. LX is not mandatory, but it can sure help. I've never chopped a ball in a Mag, so, for, me atleast, the I-frame would be the first upgrade. When I get my Mag soon, it will probably be the first upgrade, if not ULT.

      Get a level x. They run for like 70 bucks on paintballgear.com Intelliframe is about 110 same place. Go for the level 10 first. Hope that helps.

      BTW, what's CDN?

        yeah get the level 10 first its a great up grade. it will save you more times than the intelliframe will. But once you have the funds get the intelliframe.

          I would talk to RougeFactor or FragTek, they might be able to help you out.

            CDN = Canadian.

            I doubt anyone would be able to get me better deals unless they were highly generous.

            Thanks, I think Im going to get the Intelliframe for now.

              some may not agree with you here, but i would. i had zero problems w/ chopping when i had my single trigger frame and my my "I frame".

              people learned to shoot w/o the lvl 10 before it came out, and so can you until you can afford one :]

                I got the lv 10 first when i was in the same situation. It made up for the fact that i had a single trigger frame. It was the bestupgrade ive ever gotten. and one of the only upgrades for any marker that makes a drastic and obvious change in perfomance. Lv 10 all the way man

                  few Q's about the LX; is it easier on the trigger? And is ULT possible to install? I remember seeing a video clip of someone who succesfully installed a ULT into a Classic valve. And on the 'easier on trigger' note, I am finding it a little difficult to shoot fast with the single trigger, so i dunno..

                  Thanks guys, but Im still confused...

                    for the full power of the ULT to work, get a RT/X valve first.

                    it may work on some classic valves and sometimes it may not. (from what i know anyway)

                    If you want the i frame, get the i frame, if you want the lvl 10 get that.

                    if you plan on keeping your marker for a while, you are gonna get both anyway almost garunteed, so just get the one you want now.

                      Well, Im thinking the I-Frame is the way to go, as I know someone in Nova Scotia who may be able to get me one for cheap.

                        ult

                        does the ult do nething on an emag...or would it just be worthles since the sear is being pushed electronically and the trigger is magnets anyway.

                            HEy man.. I say get the Iframe... if you have played with your mag without LX, then you shouldn't have anymore issues than you alread have. However, if you are having chopping issues, get the LX or slow your finger down.

                            As for the ULT, I wouldn't try it in the classic, there are too many variables to screw with and we wouldnt want you blaming AGD, or whoever you buy the ULT off of, for any bad performance you may/may not get. I would say, get a Iframe, play for a bit, then save and get an xvalve. Xvalves have the LX factory installed, and you get the RT tech. One of the best upgrades ever. Good luck and if you need anything from me, just PM and we can hook up I'm only a 30 min drive away.

                              Are you buying these new or used?

                              I haven't been keeping up on the FS forums, but it seems intelliframe deals are harder to come by than LX deals, plus the LX is generally cheaper... They shouldn't be about the same price. i.e. I got my LX for about $50USD, and intelliframe for about $90USD.

                              Personally, I'd lean toward intelliframe if it were between the two.

                              What kind of hopper do you have again?
