i think mags are slowly dwindleing away..

[WiccanWarlord]

today,at the paintball feild i made an amazing discovery. cockers outnumbermags about 5 to 1. my freind cj and i were the onlyones withmags, and there was.. about 7 black magics being ussed by11 year olds, i kid you not. thats no exxageration,and one kid was comlaining that he got that. because he wanted an angle instead.. ughh.. i hope it isnt like that at your freilds.. tyhat would be unfortunate.

dont get me wrong, my friend an i love ours, and would take them over a cocker anyday. but i just dont understand what makes cockers so apealing

[a_malfunction]

Maybe at your field! Last time I went to my feild 1/2 to 2/3 of the people had mags. I really dont think they are going anywhere.

All i have to say is that most fields don't allow children under 12 on their fields in the first place.....And unsupervised it's usually between 14-16.....

[strongboy2005]

at the field i play at there are anywhere from 20-30 people every saturday. about 5 - 10 of them have low end semi autos. then 2 - 4 of them have angels, 3 - 5 have mags, and 6 - 7 tote cockers. at the field i play mags outnumber angels, but are slightly lower than cockers and low end semi autos

my field has a ten year old limit.. well.. i guess my field sucks then, i swear all i saw today was cockers and model 98's

lol

Mags will never die!

On another note.. sometimes I feel the same way, but in my area there arent a lot of high quality guns, I shoot a RT Pro and in my area ur lucky to see a cocker letalone a mag.

But I like the feeling of being the OutKast with the mag hehe.

it ussed to be like that here (el paso tx) but then all of the sudden the 2 scubba shops on thew west side(where i live) started filling nitro, gennisis paintball opened a feild and 2 stores here, and now instead f talons and spyders i see shockers cockers and every once in a while an angel. i was just saying, its alittle akward when there are only 2 mags out or 25 people.. haha.. poor people.. they may never know the glory of a mag.. i think one problem people have with mags is theres nothing to mill. i dont really want to mill mine, but thats what 4 or 5 of the cocker an or shocker/imppy guys said they didnt like.. that might be an idea there.. hmm im getting ahead or my self.. ill shut up now

At the field today there were 7 or 8 mags, forgot to get a real good count, and then when I wanted to get a count and take pictures a couple people had already left. One of the refs actually went out to his car and brought in his classic just so he could fit in with us. None of them were AO members, but I told them about the site. Strange how mag owners seem to have a strange comradely even without being AO members...

mags will never die... they are the semi that revolutionized paintball to what it is today... mags stand for quality and service and mags will survive forever because theyre design leaves so much room for changes and is very simple...


Long live the mag!!!

Army kids you not.

Kids- Autocockers are not toys to be played with, they'll break just as easy as that $3 action figure Grandpa Neddy bought you.

Men-Automags...Strong.Reliable.Built Like a Rock......wait, isn't that the Chevy commerical?

[Paintchucker]

I keep trying...

I keep trying to kill my 1993 minimag, but it has more life than the energizer bunny. It will never die! And I don't think AGD is going anywhere anytime soon...

I think the thing about cockers, is that they have a very high "fiddle with" factor. Mags are boring. You can't mill them, and all you have to do is put in a few drops of oil, chrono, and every so often put in a parts kit. Also the guns are pretty much tourney ready out of the box. There aren't a lot of add-on parts needed.

at my local fields:
Country Club Paintball - 33% Mags
Challenge Park - 3 People - Me and my friends

[FeelTheRT]

it's been like that for a while... there will always be more Cockers and Angels. Those are the most commonly used guns.
