    Time to pump up AGD?

    I think that time may be perfect for AGD to come out with a production pump marker. I am not talking about selling kits, but actually making the marker in-house and selling it in pump form.

    What do folks think?

    itd be nice but...


    ide say phantoms are about the main marker that a "pump mag" would be

    so it(mag) would have to be a formidable apponent in my eyes to sell at all, let alone at decent numbers.

    i dont really see a need but i guess its possible and possibly logical with agd moving into the rec/scenario market

    and since does when does agd do anything in-house?

    also i think theyrs things agd could focus on more, then again its NOT MY business

          Unfortunaly, i say no. Mags are desinged to be semiauto, not like an autococker that is essentialy an autococking pump. This leads mags not to tend twards efficiency (of CO2), something that is highly valued in stock play.

          That being said, if agd were to desing a marker that was a more efficient than the traditional mag, I would say sure, sign me up for one

                Well, agd does have a long history with sticking to systems that work well and just improving on the existing design.

                            I doubt it would sell. A pump mag is inferior in many ways to a Phantom, from weight to effeciency to the built-in autotrigger. It'd be a "novelty" gun, and those aren't something that usually sells too well.

                              I very much doubt that anyone besides some of the extreme AGD affectionados would actually buy one, and it'd probably be really expensive.
