    You are right, how do you make the best better....

    Yeah, since Tom retired we get no feedback or news about AGD.

      Mags are not pushed like they should, ask most newbs.... mag what???

      Hmm... so, what makes a mag better than say - a (in no particular order) Angel, Shocker, DM , PM, Timmy, Viking, etc?

        It's all opinion but I'd say

        Simplicity
        Reliability
        Customer service

        and lots of other small things like I love the feel of mags, I can aim very well with them, they are very small and very light.
        In my opinion the only downfall the mag has is efficiency and it honestly isnt that bad.

        That's right, I said it.

        But there really isnt any such thing as 'better' just more preferable

              for over eleven years there has been little change to the valve, it is the fastest...proven, it has been around longer and ask any mag owner, there is nothing better, most people dont stop and think.... if Tom K never invented his products it would be very different world. Almost every marker uses concepts introduced by AGD.


              And in order to get perfaction you have to make it better, there is no marker out there that is on the level of thr RT, It leads the pack from the day one.......
              its all about the angles and blind spots... not the marker nor the player.

                  its really all personal preference with higher end guns. All have their upside, and all have the downside. Ive owned a lot of higher end guns and still prefer my cyborg the most.

                    Besides if the cut the emag that would kill most of their sales wouldn't it?
                    Sure the RT pro custom is dirt cheap but with electros dominating the market and RT trigger illegal for tourneys who would buy it besides people like us! :P

                        Hmmm.. I own a mag, custom built (actually right this moment I think I own four through some fluke of inventory management by a local shop). I would be hard pressed to mark any marker out there today as "the best", and I think I have the experience owning many of today's high end markers to say that. I had a Devilmag... Best requires that it be better than everything else. Even it was not better than anything else. As to the "no other marker out there that is on the level of the RT"... you need to come to this decade.

                          Not necessarily. Things are done by the lowest bidder in the military, so unles you have the capacity to make a ton of products, the company might not be able to handle it.

                              And not all contracts go to the lowest bidder either.

                                What do you think is more common? A post asking whether or not the rumor that AGD is going out of business is true...or the post somewhere in the thread asking if anyone uses the search option?

                                It's a quandry.
