    A couple pictures of my E-Mag

    I thought these would turn out better. I've got them under a 1000 watt high pressure sodium light and it's still kind of dark.

    Just depends on the camera settings sometimes...

    Pics always look better outside, too

    Looks nice, tho

    What's the jewel on the HALO say?


    EDIT-

    OK- I see... Guinness, is it?

      sodium lamps have a rather limited spectrum of light they throw, IIRC, as opposed to a fuller spectrum like the sun, so it might appear bright to your eye (lots of photons being pumped out by the lamp), but not all the colors will have appro wavelengths to interact with.

          That's kinda sexy looking. How does it compare against the X-Mag in terms of speed?

            Yep, HID Sodium lights throw mostly red spectrum light. Great for flowers and blooming plants. Not so good for photos.

            Nice mag though.

              x-mags, emags and PTP emags all shoot exactly the same. If all the triggers were set up alike, a user would notice no difference shooting the three, besides the wieght :]

                        Thats much better!

                        Looks great!

                        What are your plans for it?

                        I would suggest buying a raw ULE rail and a raw ULE body... Then send the thing off for anno

                          I was thinking of sending the rail to be milled out but $30 plus hassle dosen't really seem worth it to me for a few oz.

                          The only thing I'd really like to do is get an pewter X-Valve to match the pewter body. I've got L10 and I don't have a problem with the weight so It would only be a cosmetic upgrade.
