What's next for AGD???

[geekwarrior]

mark, can you at least tell us when we will fnd out what the news is?

What's the future looking like?

Chaper 7 or 11. I hope not, I hate to see any business fail, but if AGD keeps going along like it has, it will fold. EVERY buisiness model I have seen have shown practices like how AGD operates leads to failure. Granted, I don't know all the intimate details of AGD, maybe they're making millions on government contracts, but they should give up onthe paintball aspect, they have no nose for it.

blasphemy!

blasphemy!

Don't get me wrong, the actual products and quality of AGD stuff is the best, a lvl 7 Classic Mag needs nearly no upkeep, other than clean and oil, but the marketing department needs a kick in the arse.

Never studied niche marketing or considered Palmers have you?

/not that I necessarily disagree with the eventual outcome.

[m-a-r-k-7]

uh, no. You're suggesting an electric gun? Not from AGD. Not after the whole smartparts thing. Not saying it wouldnt be nice to have a new, and technilogically up-to-date marker out from AGD, but from what I am to understand. Tis' forbidden.

I don't think its forbidden... they just have to pay SP.

Forget Electros. With all these Pneumag projects they should make Pneumag automags, but instead of running air it should be propane. They should have the LPR outside the gun and use the remaining space in the grip frame to attach a tiny 12 gram propane tank. I believe this would cause the mag to be more lighter and more efficient, they could also make a propane upgrade kit for all current AGD markers.

what they need to do is get rid of the sear. Sear = potentially uneccesary friction, and all that friction means it will inevitably fail. If they could lose the sear but keep it mechcanical, that would be the best case scenario... for me at least.

There is no real way to lose the sear and keep it simple.

besides mags work for YEARS even with the sear and it does not cause that much extra friction.

Keep it simple but make it nice.

I wouldent mind if they could make SLUG body's again I want a karta real bad....

The pump scene is blowing up these days, and AGD could make a killing off of it. A $400 pump mag, with a ule barrel would sell like hot cakes. Just look at CCM's SS-25, they're selling very well and while I have never used a pump mag, I have reason to believe that it would be better than my SS-25. I imagine because of the design the pump mag would have a lighter pump stroke (after all you only have to push the bolt back) and you wouldn't have to deal with roll outs and barrel kits because it's open bolt. I would buy on in a heart beat. A ton of money could be made even if AGD just rereleased a pump kit. Today if your luck enough to find a pump kit for a mag, it has a 400% mark up.

I totally agree with you there. Since AGD is doing so good with the Tac One's, I think they should offer a sniper marker. AGD is a respected name in Scenario, offering a pump would at least make people turn their heads. At least offer a pump kit.
