    New Mag owner; Now I can post without guilt!

    I have finally gotten myself a Mag!
    I picked up an Automag RT (Classic) with Benchmark double trigger frame, Kapp cradle and a 6-piece Custom Products barrel kit for well under $200.

    Now, all I need to do is work on the trigger system. The current trigger has a pull of about 3/4 mile.

    Any sugestions for improving performance on a budget?

    Those benchmarks for the mags are pretty long. I like the one on my blazer, but that's because the actual pull on a blazer is micro small, and you don't have a lot of worry about short stroking.

            The only way you are going to get the trigger pull shorter is by buying an intelliframe. Yea, they are pricy but they are pretty nice frames.
            You got an AMAZING deal, pat yourself on the back!
            Get a decent hopper and n2 system if you dont have them already.. Other than that, LX would be a great upgrade.
            Congrats!

              Dang, I forgot to mention that it had a Level 10 installed in it already. I have a Crossfire tank, a Warp Feed and a HALO hopper already, so I am good to go there.

              Therefore, it sounds like I need an Intelliframe (at least until that Deadly Wind frame comes out. It is supposed to be good for 16 bps with no batteries, from what I have heard).

              Thanks for the feedback, guys! You rock!

              EDIT: Here is a pic of the setup:

                Thats an even more amazing deal if it already had LX!
                What it looks like is that the intelliframe is really the only upgrade you can buy.
                I dont think the deadly wind will be compatible with classic RTs because the field strip hole (or banjo bolt hole as its called on the classic RT) is bigger. You might just be able to drill it out though or get someone to make it custom for you..

                    I love the look of classics and that one is pretty amazing. Are you getting a chrome intelliframe or black one? Also i would suggest playing around with differen't sized drops and even rails to see which one you like best.

                      xvalve
                      body
                      intelliframe, if you got cash devil frame
                      get rid of the foregrip bracket, put the foregrip all the way back
                      new foregrip

                      if youre wanting to go 16bps on a classic valve, you can be the one verifying that its actual limit is 16bps. thats kind of like someone on an xvalve constantly going 26bps. so, get a faster valve. x is best. the new body would be important for me because im only 13 and small. i held a cocker, i didnt know paintball guns could get that heavy. and stainless steel? heavy. the foregrip thing is just dumb.

                      you dont have to listen to me, because currently im planning on this setup:
                      rt ule custom with x valve and lvl10
                      dallara body and rail
                      hedlok 2 feedneck
                      j&j edge barrel kit
                      shocktech gas thru
                      hybrid grind on/off
                      hybrid drop
                      devilmag vert frame
                      72/5000
                      halo b

                      but remember, since your on a budget, believe it or not- like me, you can sell what you replace. you buy a new frame, sell the old one, buy a new body, sell the old one, buy a new valve, sell the old one, etc. etc. etc. just my $.02

                          Hey guys, thanks again for the feedback.

                          Lotsa good information in your posts, and it is appreciated.

                          Sounds like an Intelliframe is the ticketl, most likely black.

                            Wow. The chances of you getting a deal like that again are pretty slim. In fact, the only way I can think of you doing it, is to knock the guy selling over the head, take the package, stuff $200 in his pocket. Seriously hot buy.

                            I played with an RT Classic for a while. It's a great marker. Be sure to know where the air fill station is though!
