Is AGD going to make it?

[ultralight]

i agree with muzikman, AGD need's a facelift.

change the name of the company, change the name of the marker, make a devilmag with a hybrid 86* frame and sell it for 799.

buddy up with PBX and make a higher end version with an MQ, dallara body and vert to compete with the g7, they look like cousins anyway, sell it for 1199.

buddy up with PTP/BE and endorse a pneumatic version sell it for 599 .

and of course make an entry level mech with a ule type body and double trigger (along the lines of a cf intelli) for 199.

bringing back rental markers is an excellent idea.

the biggest part of all would be to hire one hell of a publicist and don't dare mention the word Automag.

and of course, field a team of ringers equipped with the g7 killers/ pneumatics..

oh yeah, muzik, how much are you willing to spend on a rental mag?

I would definately hate to see AGD go. My favorite gun i have ever owned is a mag. They are very easy to take care of, fix, are very accurate, and are very easy to make so many different upgrades to customize it any way you want it.

Parts

I went to the local paintball store today looking for mag barrel O-Rings...didn't have them. No mags on the wall...mostly cockers, DM5s, impulses, shockers... He said he had a parts kit somewhere that he could sell me that contained a couple of the barrel o-rings. For me, the worst part about paintball is how the guns become outdated and hard to get parts for so fast. In 5 years, a gun gets impossible to repair much less upgrade. I have an old Raptor Silver Eagle...impossible to get parts for. An old Tippmann Pro-Lite...only seen a few parts kits/rebuild kits...and they cost more than the gun. And now I've seen Mag parts starting to disappear. It's too bad...because other than the 13 year old crowd that only likes a marker if it's anodized, 20+bps, and over $700...I've rarely heard complaints from Mag owners about the quality of these guns.
