Mags in Tournaments

[germanman]

I've been in the middle of a move for a couple months (Cali to Vegas baby) and so I've been out of the paintball scene for a while. Anywho, the question at hand is...does anybody still use E-Mags in tournamnets and if not anybody from the big teams, would anybody here still trust theirs to kick *** and take names. I've had my E-Mag for abot a year now, and will have it till the day I die, so it will be my tourney gun for now. Does this make me crazy????

At the Owners Group Division at IAO Team AO - using a combination of E/X mags (and one Devilmag) took second place out of the 11 teams. Of course... it was the Brass Eagle Rainmaker group that beat us and it is not exactly the most competetivly orientated tournament in the world... but we had a lot of fun and our markers actually made it through the entire tournament.

lohman was your d-mag chopping? or what i saw some pics of the breech/outside filled with paint.

your fine using an e-mag, regardless of what some of the new age hype monkeys will/might say.

I tried to use Hellfire in a mag, then did not quit pulling hte trigger - I had a liquid line in my loader. It was not a chop in technical sense, as the balls were fully loading, the bolt and the force feed just combined to make them explode either as they hit the bottom of the breech or as the bolt hit it. It was a serious mess.

Mags are not for tournies anymore, I don't care what the AO faithful preach. Great rec guns however! I have nothing bad to say about mags.

^^^^FALSE With the new pred boards comeing out mags can and have kept up with turny guns for how much you want to say they werent made for turny play your dead wrong.

I don't care about new boards, sure they keep up, but still are hard on paint. The DevilMag mod even takes out the LX to use eyes, but the gun at high pressures will destroy most tournament paint before it even leaves the breach as the paint used in tournies is usually really thin shelled.

Dude, calm down, with only 100 boads on the project I doubt the Predator will bring the E/X-Mag back to even a marginal presence in any tournament series which crosses more than regional boundries. Even when the E-Mag was new and there were AGD sponsored teams the gun wasn't as popular as the LCD Angel by a long shot or later the Matrix and Intimidator.

Even if Pred boards were magically installed in every E/X-Mag ever made I still doubt they'd make any sort of serious resurgance into the tournament scene.

That isn't to say the E-Mag isn't tournament capable, it is, but then again so is an Angel LCD and the original Diablo Direct Matrix, and how many of those do you see floating around in todays tournament environment?

lol ok buddy w/e you say your the jenious who knows everything i forgot

[BD_Paintball]

i was thinking the same thing as WARPED1 the lvl10 will destroy most tourny paint. not to mention the weight of emags. yes you can say ule everything and get pred but that will cost ALOT more then to just pick up your regular high end tourny marker. ule emag = $850.00 pred board = alot.

Its seems that knowledgeable minds think alike! The Level 10 will stop on a dollar bill so don't give me that crap it wont shoot tourney paint. You two guys talk alot of crap about mags. Keep it up. Won't be long now.
