    Vertical Feeds? WHY NOT?

    why is it that every stock Mag that I look for has a stardard feed? I WANT A VERTICAL. That is the only reason that I bought a Cocker. There was no VF for them. Now I know they make em, but why not put them on normal classic or stardard looks? Same with the mini.

    Noone wants an elbow in a tournament! I cant stand em. you dont really aim anyway. You look where it is going.

    I believe that with the blowback that a stock mag produces the vert feed would be way tall. There is always the no-rise option too.

        THEN THEY COULD MILL THE BODY A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY. So many people would buy it if they put vf on the cheaper mags. Its only sensable. I would buy one in a heartbeat if they did that.


        the classic has too long of a feed. i cut mine in half with a hack saw, looks a whole lot better. LOL

            well, a normal mag is about the price of a tipmann. Lots of kids would buy one for that price. Probllem is...doesnt have a barrel, ect. NOTHIN. what is up with that???

            Make it vertical and people will take another look at it. Dont get me wrong. I like mags. Im just trying to help Airgun Designs. YOU CAN SELL MORE GUNS IF YOU DO THIS.

              For a vert feed ss bodied mag, the barrel itself has to be milled specially to work with the body. Otherwise the hole doesn't like up with the feedtube. Very few companies do this, which means they would have to do an aftermarket modification.

              Also, I don't think the stainless bodies are even being produced anymore. AGD is moving towards the ULE parts.

                Its fairly easy to say TK do this do that make a roller trigger make this make that.. chances are they either do good or the are a major flop hence the roller trigger comment. you guys are talking bout old technology that AGD has outdated with its new ULE body. AGD thought of what you are thinking way before you. so what did they do they made a vert feed body that weighs all of 4 oz and that accepts a barrel that everyone is familiar with which is cocker threaded. now if you can explain any cons towards the ule body please do. now i will hide in the hole i call nyc.

                            The ULE body does. Check in the Dealer Froum for a post by Fragtek titled "Rogue ULE RT customs HOT" or something along those lines...

                            You can order an RTpro and customize it, including the option for a vert-feed, cocker-threaded ULE body.
