    Possibly the perfect gun

    So we've already got ULE bodies and LVL 10 and other real nice features, but it could get better.

    Steps to turning the automag into the perfect gun:
    -remove back reg and cap off (use vertical reg instead)......reduces weight, reduces gun size
    -remove external hose and mill out internal airways...........obvious reasons
    -electronics (including eyes)............................................. increase speed and reinforce anti-chop


    I know that these have all been discussed before but I just wanted to let these ideas resurface. I have no skills to make any of this happen but I know that someone out there does. Just imagine this gun...it just may be perfect. What do you guys think?

    I'm gunna see if I can get a photoshopped pic up in here soon.

    If you have any other ideas on topic please feel free to post.

    Why would you want to remove the reg? The mag reg has the fastest recharge ever. Why you would want to get rid of it is beyond me.

      and then it must be possible to redesign vertically

        Not get rid of it. Turn it into a vert reg.

          why would you want it to be be vertical? Besides, it is an integral part of the whole valve design. (As far as I know)

            seems like most people use a foregrip anyways so why not just use a vert reg and elminate the need to put it on the back

              i believe tom said that an X vavle reg could not be replicated in a vert reg form (this was discussed around the time of the 2 liter

                If you are concerned with the very small weight of the regulator being on the back of the valve, you must be running a remote then, because if you have a tank on that thing, it really doesn't matter where the damn regulator is.

                The ONLY part for which I am even partially in agreement is the air line. But that's just a cosmetic thing.

                    There is no perfect gun. And if there was, I dont think AGD would be making it.

                      Actually it pretty closely describes a freestyle. The insides are pretty darn mag-like.

                        or the Ion.

                          no.... I believe the Ion uses a spool valve.

                          The insides of the Freestyle are very similar to the mag though.

                            Remains that the Ion is a blow-foward semi with a pneumatic return (as opposed to the spring that the Mag uses). The Ion uses air from the dump chamber to push the bolt forward, the Mag works the same way though the design is slightly different. The Ion is a Mag that's all pneumatic in its essence.

                            This differs from guns like the Shocker and Matrix (though not by much) which move thier bolts forward with pneumatic pressure routed through the selenoid and not soley from the dump chamber.

                              The perfect gun is the one that fits your style of play the best at the time. As time goes on and your style progresses so will your need to change, either a little or a lot depending on the person. There will never be a "perfect" gun because someone will always come along and find some way to make something that either adds to its performance or to its looks. If what you listed is your perfect gun then get started studying the various fields that wil put you in a place to build it. You never know, it may become the next "insert name of over-hyped hunk of aluminum here." Good luck and happy hunting.
