Bye Phantom Hello Mag AGAIN.

[Bear_Claw]

Eh after only about 5-6months playing stock class exclusivly i had decided to trade the phantom in for a nice speedball setup once again. Although i really like stock class and the phantom i think i just missed haveing a quicker compact speed setup and wanted to go back to it especially with the winter/indoor season approching.

So i traded the phantom for this a MAG again (i traded my last mag to get the phantom LOL). But i managed getting a better gun than the maker i traded to get the Phantom in the first place.

Basically its a MINI MAG with a Classic Mag valve with Level 10(VERY NICELY TUNED). Its got a Intellie frame and Blade trigger shocktehc flame drop to a on off asa and a Dye Forgrip. Have both a Smaprtparts Progressive barrel and a dye boomstick (I think) barrel both 12". Oh and a 72/3000PSI HPA tank. And the best part is i got a Black X valve as well - the on/off assembly and the bolt (will be getting a ULT ON/OFF and a second Level ten kit when $$$ permits for a VERY FAST mehc marker in an extreamly small package.



OH and i WILL get a stock class marker again but most likley i want a PGP over another phantom as the phantom although extreamly light small and accurate and comfortable it just seemed delicate not something i like in a marker. I kjnow it was built great and was pretty strong and their pretty indestructable but i think it was actually too light for my liking LOL.

The mag i traded to get the phantom LOL

really cool. r u keeping the minimag body? wat r u gonna change on it?

[Bear_Claw]

Yeah i keeping the mini mag bodie the only thing i want to do to it is get a level ten and ULT for the xvalve and keep the current Level 10 and classic valve as a spare (or if i need to run Co2.

Eventually i plan to replace the 12V revie with either a halo b or a eggy II.

But other than those its pretty mutch set.


Maybe after i finish the x valve i get a ULE body and basically build a second marker slowly with the classic valve but i not dead set on it.

Oh adn awsome marker LOL. I never tried a y/z grip but think i will stick to my intellie frame LOL.

[KillingSpree]

ye i was thinking of getting a ule body too but...i guess its too expensive for nothing, cause im not putting an x valve and i dont feel like buying another barrell. i might try investing in a warp...ill see how it goes. Right now im looking for comfort and accuracy more than speed

[WARPED1]

Nice setup for a mag.(I just personally don't like mags much, but can appreciate a nice setup.)

KillingSpree / Bear Claw:

How do you like the Dye gas through? That's the style that I want to get. It's the nicest looking foregrip that I've come across yet.

[KillingSpree]

very comfy... and i mean very. i likeme better than the new ones. oh and it doesnt get dirty. sand gets easily blown off. i recommend one. oh yeah and its pretty killer looking too

Hey, just FYI, I own a phantom and 6 PGPs... the Phantom is far superior in my opinion, although it does seem far less sturdy.

If you're after something more sturdy, consider one of the sheridan rifles... they're like PGPs only they're bigger... something like a P-68SC or a P-12.

Or a Sniper II. Recently I picked up an upped 2k3 cocker for $100, threw a $30 pump kit on it and had a great sniper for cheap.

I don't think you'd be happy with a PGP. They're a bit lacking in terms of accuracy, ease of pump, and "user-friendliness" during a game compared to a Phantom. Plus they're harder on paint, and heavier (although they are much smaller)

[Bear_Claw]

The front grip is awsome And comfy.

As for the differant pumps the sheridan rifles are realy nice but also REALLY expensive too. Evenually i will get a pump again but now im not shure exactly what LOL. I just hve nver heard anything ba about the PGP and have been told their built like tanks. IM not expecting it t perform like the Phantom but i was hoping it had pretty decent short to mid range accuracy 30-50' range. As for weight im not concered at all is well look at my sig LOL i aint got a light gun the phantom was INSANELY light and its one of the things i think i actually disliked LOL.

Basically when i et a pump i want to spend $200 or less an only want basically a stockclass. The WGP Sniper is another option i have forgotten and will consider when the time comes although i really like the look of the PGPs unfortunatly now were around here has any pumps so i cant get a feel for em without buying one.

[SpitFire1299]

I have that grip on my mag also.. It was well worth the $10

[Scott Hudnall]

That looks like you got a heck of a deal! nicely done!

And regarding getting another pump.....I agree with FSU about the sniper pump kit on a cheap cocker. You can't go wrong. That's exactly what I did and it's a great set up.

[phantomhitman]

jsut asking, but why did you go from stock back to semi? just wanted to change it up?

[craltal]

you can find the Sheridans that Matt (FSU_Paintball) mentioned for less than $200

[FSU_Paintball]

Yeah... I picked up a P-12 with a crossman stock for $125

[Sheazer]

Why not have the best of both worlds and have a P Mag? Swicthes back easy enough... yeah yeah I know quite hard to find, just messin' wiht ya.
