    ergh, the guy backed out, now what?

    ok i posted about a good deal on a mag, the guy sold it to some one else. now im trying for a classic with standard feed. is standard feed straight up and down? i also hear they are really tall, can you cut them down and put a slip on feedneck, like the java slip over feedneck? and lastly would it be better to buy a mag that is already the way you want it?

    Someone will correct me if I am wrong but I believe standard feed is still angled, but the feed tube goes directly into the body. A power feed is angled but the feed tube goes across the body and feeds the balls from the opposite side of the hopper.

      standard feed is like what 98 customs have.
      This gives you mucho blowback, which can stop balls from loading.

      Powerfeed, I mucho better. Stops blowback. This should be the kind of body you should get.

        standard feed works just fine with a classic valve set up as long as your hopper isn't almost empty but i would recomend powerfeed or ule as most people choose to change the body anyways. buying a mag the way you want it is much cheaper than upgrading because by the time you are done buying ups you will have almost all the parts for two guns.

            Yes, Paradigm is well worth it. Don't buy any classic mag for over $150. If you have the money just get the Paradigm. No upgrading needed.

              well worth it

              paradigm is well worth the money ..

              take a look at agd's price on the rt pro ..

              also the paradigm comes with a uled rail for less wait and the front forgrip mount that agd uses is gone ... that alone is a nice option..

              for 120.00 you can find a real nice used tank with plenty of hydro time left on it ..

              also the paradigm doesnt come stock with a barrel..
