Is there any news on a release date for the predator e/x-mag board from tag sports? Are there any beta testers out there yet? Have the solenoid interface issues been worked out? Has anyone heard any news?

No news yet. Keep the emails to TAG going. Curt (The designer) frequents the Tinkerers guild. He said that the prototypes are being built now. So it wont be too much longer. (I hope) -
I think I was the first pre order way back in the day. Never thought I ( and all of us) would be waiting soooooooooooooooo long for this to come out. TAG made is sound like as soon as the 50 preorders were met it would not be long after that the beta boards would be out.
I am a little disapointed in how long this is taking and to some extent the lack of updates from TAG. I know they are busy, but a few more quick updates would not take too long to send out. I guess I have been waiting too long to back out now, and besides that there are not too many other options for us mag owners. I guess I should say, cheap options.
I wish they would make a deal for those of us that have been waiting so long. A deal on eye installs would be great. A littel discount and quick turn around time would make me pretty happy. I guess it is always good to hope.Comment

Yes, who would have thought that about 6 months later we all would still be on the hook waiting.... it really really is the pits.
Even though its not much of a consolation, it seems that Curt himself has undertaken the design of the Emag board. Some of you may have read his blog chronicalling his development of the Halo Cheetah boards. I think that we are in very good hands.
The only thing that blows, is that we still have to WAIT
Im sure that there will be a bunch of issues that they will run into with the design of this board that they dont even expect... so stay tuned. (That is the pessamist in me speaking)
Then again, who the heck knows... maybe it will all go smoothly...

BigEvil, you better test the hell out of the thing when you get it. I hope it is perfect the first time around. I would suck even more if they shipped them out and then had a recall on the suckers.
So, the designer now is not the one that moved to California?Comment

Yeah,.. I know how you feel, but the whole purpose of the pre-order thing was to see if there was any interest in the product. They are making a minimum size production run of 120 boards and that is it. I doubt they will make any money on this endevour. Then everyone wonders why no one wants to make mag stuff. THere are only abou 1300 emags in existence. Compare that to the 10 billion IONS floating around now and you can see where the potential to make money is and where it is not.
I am very greatful to the TAG guys for making this board. Even if it does take them 9 months.Comment

Yeah I agree with you there its a wonder they are making it for how few guns are out there. So I to am very grateful and do realize that good things do take time. But I did have that fantasy in my mind of getting to use it this fall. Oh well as long as its in my hands by christmas.Comment
