    What company would you like to see AGD team up with?

    Well in Miscue's thread, Tom responded by saying AGD is still around and is looking for a big buisness to team up with. They are still around just need money to get going again.
    The question is, what big paintball company would you like to see team up with and what kind of part would they put out together? Keep in mind it has to be a big buisness so that throws AKA and Palmers out the door.

    ive been out of the loop too long now to know what the big guys around are...but can you find one of those big, money making companies and still retain the integrity in your design and product line and keep the personalized service that AGD has been known for?

    mebbe, i dunno

      I think that the mag is the best affordable mechanical marker out there at this point, and at this point distribution and market is as much a problem as anything. I look at up and coming scenario products by BT that could just as easily be made for the Tac-5 in a partnership deal. I look at Empire and see at some point they will move at least some product towards scenario play - perhaps a mag would fit in well.

      What big company is going to make an investment into AGD that does not end with the need to outsource the manufacturer of equipment to compete and increase profit level?

        ICD, i could see them having mags for the other side of their productline since they just came out with lots of electros. but its just not that easy, to pick a company and now your partners with them. or even tippmann, mags could be the top of their line. im just throwing names around so whatever. wow, i got it WGP, lol.

            couldnt agree more

            it would have to be somone that would keep tolerances, and probly production in US(mag prices would not change much probly, other than downa tad if done in alrge batches)

            K2? they seem like they could probly do it

            and buzzboy, theyr under k2 now i beleive too soo...

            but cockers CAN be made with crappy tolerances..

              I think if AGD still wants to head to the scenario market then, Ben Tippmann is growing steadily.. But I'm not sure if he's considered "big"...

                Tippmann isn't the company they once were, either.

                  I'd like to see them with DYE or WDP. They're both big, mass producing companies, but their products are also pretty high quality. They seem to actually care about QC more than the other huge manufactoring powers in paintball. And neither has tapped the scenario market yet...

                    AGD and ICD would be good. Because they are both 3 letter abreviations.

                    Both these companies are the under dog. Everyone looks down on thier product, unless theyve owned or shot one.

                      BS,
                      Look at the inovation that has come out of the dealers forum from guys who dont have access to massive amounts of capitol and other resources. Money is just an excuse for lack of inovation.

                            Hmmm...that's a good question. I would have to say Planet Eclipse, Kingman, or WGP. But, that's just my oppinion, AGD will probably surprise us all anyways.

                              I'd like to see that. Considering the All Americans were either sponsored by AGD or just shot mags exclusively and made a "private label"(Smart Mag), back in the pre-egun days.
