    Any other services similar to DevilMAG?

    After looking at the DevilMAG site, I am very interested in sending in my mag to turn it into an electro with an eye. There has to be some kind of competition with this, what are some other sites/people that do something similar to the DevilMAG?

    no body is currently offering anything like that. only other way to do it is by yourself or do a spyder mag mod, but then you dont get eyes

      are there any tutorials online on how to do it? Is it hard?

        there are a few people who have done it and have pics in the workshop section i think. its pretty hard cause you need to make mounts for the board and solenoid. best bet is just to go with the devilmag.

            er, I own a DevilMag, and modding a spyder frame to work with the mag works great

            Now, I couldn't tell you how to do it... doesn't mean its not an option. I'd actually recommend PBN's automag board, as I believe it's stickied over there.
            God....I guess I was probably returning videotapes.

              Tonybhall on pbnation will do the spydermag mod for $100. This does not include the equipment, only the service. You have to send him your mag with a spyder esp frame and all the shims on your ult. It would also be a good idea to send an extra sear in too. He doesn't install eyes or any of that though. So it'd be like this:

              Service - $100
              Used ESP frame - $50
              Tboard w/ 25/50g switch - $66
              Aftermarket trigger - $25
              ESP sticky 3's - $20
              Total - $261

              If you want eyes add another $10 for the actual hardware from scenario dreams and say around $50 for your local airsmith to drill the eye holes. That's $321 for installing a frame with an uncapped board, aftermarket trigger, eyes, and a light switch. The only thing the Devilmag has on this setup is the option for a 90* frame and lots of modes with the AFA code. For some more modes add either the ramping chip or tchip onto your tboard order for an extra $20. As of now there are no spyder vert frames though there should be one coming out soon. So $341 and all you're missing is it isn't a vert frame. That's a difference of $209 since the devilmag w/ eyes is $550.
              I am not sure however if tony is still willing to do the service. Please pm him first.

                  this thread is becoming a joke. a spyderframed mag will NOT in any way compete with a devilmag. i dont care what you do with it.

                  $341 and all you're missing is it isn't a vert frame

                  no, very wrong. you are getting a faster gun, a frame made especially made for a mag, better looking, way more modes of fire for whatever reason you need them. the devilmag is by far teh most reliably, fastest, all in one package mag.

                    think of it this way 349 for a frame that may be able to keep up with a devilmag but isnt made for the automag and looks like a spyder frame!! then there is the devilmag which comes with eyes and arguably the best board out there!! plus the devil mag frame is a custom frame built specifically for an automag and looks like a custom frame!!

                      For the most part, WRONG.

                      With an xsf board or t-board the spydermag will keep up with a Devil Mag just fine. XSF board is uncapped and the T-board is capped at 36 bps. Since they use the same valve, it's really up to the speed of the users fingers at that point.

                      You can add eyes to a spydermag (don't know why you would if you have a lvl10)

                      And the T-Board now has an upgrade that will give you all those modes of fire too.

                      The devil mag does look better, I'll give you that one.

                        and by the way. I don't actually do the Spydermags. My team mate Daniel does them. But I can hook you up with him.

                          Yea, you guys are pretty disillusioned. The AFA code has a couple extra cheater modes, wow. The spyder frame actually doesn't look half bad on a mag. In fact it looks very good with sticky grips on it. With a ramping chip, the tboard is right next to the predator. It has fully programmable ramping modes, debounce, etc. It is also uncapped now. The old tboards were capped at 36.

                            if by you guys, you mean me, because i am the only one sticking with my guns and saying that the devilmag is better.
                            i have seen videos of the spydermags, they are decent. i have not seen many actualy spydermags in action, so i cannot honestly say it capped at this, or the programming on the board slows it down, etc. imo they will not keep up with a devil in a legal one shot one pull setting. i could care less about dienasty mode, hard or soft ramping, i only use legal setups even for practice. you might say it is up to the user, how can someone pull faster on a devil than a sypdermag........it is just that good I hate spyder frames, cheaply made (material wise as well as ugly like i stated before) and not enough room for me to get my banana hands in the frame.
                            you are saving around $200 for something that is lower quality, not truly made for a mag, and imo (which is biased anyways ) slower. but hey, if you can post a video of a spydermag honestly pulling around 16-19 bps i will be happy. it gives people more options, and if you are on a budget it would be better for you.
                            about the eye comment, at high speeds you are better off with an eye. it just makes sure the ball is in place befor you shoot, which can only help out.

                              I'm not at all disillusioned. I understand prestige marketing and the minimal return on investment you get for spending once you reach a certain point. That being said I would still take a Devilmag over some pieced together marker, even if there is minimal performance gain. You may not beleive this but when marketting yourself in paintball, and looking for that extra competetive edge you get from the other team looking at what you shoot, well I would much rather have a custom marker than something I have, even if done well, cobbled together. Does it make a major performance difference? I honestly do not know the answer to that... to me it doesn't matter, I have other reasons for choosing a DevilMag that are taking into consideration factors other than performance.
