    It's a trap!

    I hope you are not refering to my post, but I'll rephrase.
    How does the shooting profile (the look of the marker as it is shouldered and ready to fire) of a DM3/5 compare to the profile of an Automag?
    EDIT: Talk about a snafu; sorry GT, thought you were refering to my post.
    Yes, I was asking about your opinion of the DM series, Fireblade. I personally dislike the extra height, just wanted another POV.

        It's kinda wierd tho,as it's not as bad as it seems like it might be.

        Maybe because the DM5 body is taller than the Xmag but the Xmag grip frame is longer than the DM5.Not enough to equal out but it's closer than you'd think if you didn't have them side by side.

        'Course when you add my no-rise CCM feedneck mod to an Xmag your not likely to ever find something that'll beat that profile.

          My thoughts exactly. I've been looking around for a high-level electro, but I just cannot get used the the new look. Oh well, I guess a X or Devilmag will have to do...

            Holy run-on sentence Batman!

            If you want a modern trix: Try for a used proto matrix (Hey! that rhymed!). Less $ that a dm4 and from what I've heard it out-performs it as well.
            If I see one more "What happened to smart parts" thread, I will kill Adam Gardner. You have been warned.

              we'rd,
              remember all of those AO is turning into pbn threads? I am trying to do my part to steer some of our newer members into the right direction. Besides, I would rather do it that have one of the mods blamed for suppression of constitutional rights.

                Not 'out performs' but basically equals.

                Also not quite built as well but pretty close and great overall marker for the price.

                      yeah, i'm pretty sure a shocker can beat any gun as far as profile goes, even an e/xmag.

                        The Profile is almost identical, not including the foregrip. It is a lot lighter, but I'll take an Xmag over it any day...in fact I already have.:)

                            If you want profile, go with a FreeStyle. I'd personally go with a Viking / Excal myself. The performence would be near the same, but the only thing you have to do to a Viking is put 3 drops of oil in it.
