What would you want in a new AGD electro?

[Chronobreak]

Umm... Wouldnt that basically be- THE X-MAG?

You guys, it has already been done with the XMag- it didnt work because it was too expensive and time consuming to make the marker. Do you really think they are going to do it again, and then make it CHEAPER?

x-mag =greatest gun ever ..perhaps with the exception of the batt pack. yet it got to me im not a big ffan of it at all kinda heavy and abit thick for a grip of my chocie and lack of customization there. maybe a gun that uses like a AA in the foregrip !! what an idea.....get on it guys

There has already been new front battery packs made by other that use 2 9V, etc and were a lot lighter. Not worth the couple ounce savings IMHO. I love the pack, I think it LOOKS awesome, feels great, perfectly placed and helps balance the marker.

Even with the battery pack, the X is still one of the lightest marker out there, and with a different pack/no pack, it IS the lightest electro out there.

Perhaps someone, maybe AGD, should make a 1/2 size internal pack? still 18V, but 1/2 pack size. wont last as long, but buy a spare. Maybe make it so the battery slides into the bottom of the pack, and is quick change? On the other hand, it is a moot point as well. If you wanted to, you could run your marker, hopper, and warp feed off the X/E battery. The weight savings from the loss of the batteries in the loader(s) would MORE than make up the difference of the lighter packs.

Just thoughts...

I say make the X-mag use maybe a smaller solenoid via the ULT, maybe make it spring return or something, or even a small valve with a pneumatic return.
A super duper fast pneumatic mag would be pretty schweet. If you used a pneumatic cylinder in place of a bolt (or made it spool design kinda) and put in a solenoid to trip the on/off then you'd have a nice searless mag. For more discussion on the pneumatic cylinder thing check out the thread on it in the Workshop, it's a good discussion.

yeah a uber pneumatic mag would be better than a great electro i think also either one with a y-frame version or please everyone vert frame would be nice as well

[wispaintstyle]

I think I would want pump arm set to a switch. so I tap the pump and cock the marker. and a belt fed 15 shot tube. Just kidding, but it would be cool to have an electro pump. I should do it with a sniper. that would rock

[JimmyBeam]

i'd like to see an electro without that huge battery case in front

Know how to bring down the cost of the X-mag? Get rid of the expensive battery and ungodly milling costs!

Booyah. Done. Already saved a few hundred. Figure a standard rail and ULE body will work fine enough for most everybody. And I'd still think that an individual frame that could be sold (being same frame that comes w/ the 'new' e-mag) would help cut cost hopefully. Figure buy and make in bulk and save everybody money.

[openboater]

just exactly what I've got

Ule body, Lx, Xvalve and a 20 bps centerflag hyperframe w/ULT. chipley feedneck.

I had an X-mag and it was too heavy .

and I guess you could say I've put my money where my mouth is, cause I'm making another just like it for my backup. which I don't find I need, but just want.

[VR4SL]

Did "X-mag" and "too heavy" just come out of someones mouth? Man, if you cant carry 2.7 lbs around a field the size of two driveways for less than 5 minutes- GET TO THE GYM!

[punkncat]

A little off topic, but Punkincat I think you meant "chuckin" paint...
(check your sig )

Its an inside thing with me and a few paintball buddies. One guy is always saying "hucking" in that sense. He was hucking some bales of hay in the truck , hucking paintballs at the guy , hucked his tools into the shed....

Suppose you had to be there , but it caught on. Hey , its better than agg.

[ScatterPlot]

to join in on some of the "inteligent" answers...

What I want in a new electro from AGD

it has to be faster than any other marker on the market
It must do household chores, such as vacuuming, dishes
It must be able to brush my teeth, cut my hair, and give me sponge baths
It must have a built in full color GPS
It must be able to comfort me in bed and offer me romantic dinners under candlelight
Lastly, if it doesnt have a button that turns it into a woman... forget it

[BeaverEater]

How bout something thats still being produced
