    i have a halo, its just that when i choose to save paint (revvy) shot buggering helps alot

      ...your obviously not thinking this through, since the viking is buffering the shots, rather than shooting, it keeps a VERY steady rythm, espicially with a hopper i am constantly outshooting, therefore making it sound like F/A

          p8ntballer and 68mag, go away.

          GT: I think thats pretty much what the DevilMag is... Here's the link. Wait, their down for a while. Well, as I understood, it was an X-valve, with Pred/Hyper, running on 9V in a 90* frame. Dual break-beam, blah, blah, blah. I think it retails around 900ish, but don't quote me.
          God....I guess I was probably returning videotapes.

            I think what he meant was using the eMag grip frame and installing a ULT, smaller solenoid (but configured in the same manner). The smaller solenoid would allow the use of a smaller battery (possibly a 9 volt). That would retain the ability to switch to mechanical and hybrid.

            Additionally add eyes and possibly swap out the circuit board for a predator.

            Or, you could add eyes to the eMag and still use the existing board.

            Either way, I believe it is all VERY doable. And if I had the time and discretionary funds I would try the first part...

              Probably a bit OT, but Devil Mags come with level 7 bolts because the Level X's were wearing through powertube o-rings at an unacceptable rate.

                Most high end electros, vikings for example, fire only when the ball is loaded into the breech. From my understanding, in most current software, if a ball is not present in the breech the shot is buffered. In an emag the shots are only buffered while the gun is in mid cycle and since that 99% of players dont shoot over 20bps shots are rarely buffered. Instead if a ball is not completely loaded lvlx kicks in and stops a chop.

                I am wondering, how an xmag shoots with a revy using lvl7 w/ ace and lvlx w/o ace. I wonder if with the ace it shoots more paint given that it buffers the shot rather than chuffing it?
                Yes and no.

                I do not have an ACE, and do not need one. It is almost completely pointless with a good loader. I shoot at 18+ BPS all the time. With a Halo or Halo+Warp - there is no issue.

                However, with a slower loader - the loader cannot keep up and results in chuffing. This KILLS your BPS.

                Yes, an EMag with an ACE WILL shoot faster if you have a slow loader - because it takes a while for the bolt to reset when you chuff.
