    New mag owner

    Recently I bought a Tac One warp left. Before I bought it I fell into the Ion craze. I modded the crap out of my Ion, constantly trying to add that certain something that I felt it was lacking. but no upgrade would add it, nor could I name what "IT" was. It was just a feeling. Anyway, I shot my friend's Tac One a few weeks ago and was suddenly able to identify what it was I felt I was missing with my current set up. The Ion, unlike my friend's mag, lacked a "soul"
    So over the next two weeks I spent all my time trying to get my Ion and my old A5 sold so I could get the money together to buy my own Tac One. Luckily everything came together and we ordered it. My friend ordered it for me since I was crashing on his couch, and we ended up calling the order in. Marsha, I believe her name was, was incredibly nice. Everyone we spoke to at AGD seemed to honestly care about what they do, and the customers they serve. Throughout it all we kept saying, "this wouldn't be the kind of treatment we would get from Smart Parts or any other big company."
    Anyway, it came in a few days ago, and I have been very happy in finding that it has this "soul" type feeling to it as well. I have shot it and played around with it and am in love with it. Its accurate, sturdy, and the design is awesome.
    Anyway, I know this is kind of a pointless post, but I just figured that maybe some of the AGD people come through here everyonce and a while, so, if they see this I hope they know how grateful I am and what a high opinion my friends and teammates and I have of the quality of your products and your customer service.

        I know, it's weird isn't it?

        I think all the time about buying a Viking or something, but when I actually get my hands on one, I just want my mag back.

        They just plain rawk.

          Vader is a team mate of mine and we now have 4 tac ones on the team (well 3 and one looking) My son is also selling his cocker to get one so that will make 5.

          There is nothing like them.

          Specially when i put my predator board in OMFG mode.. hehehehehehe....

            Thanks everyone for the welcome. I post on SpecOps as well, but I have been lurking around here as a guest for a while now. Seems like a nicer place with fewer kids.

            Chronobreak - Thanks

            MANN - I know, I feel like this has almost been a religous experience for me, lol.

            Shirow - I agree completely. I still haven't been a mag owner for very long yet, but so far when I look back at how I used to react to certain markers, I don't get my interest in them. And I feel almost...ashamed...for having owned an Ion.

            Flyboy is on my team, as he said, and on one occasion my Ion broke down, he just looked at me and matter-of-factly said "should have bought a mag" I laughed about it, but he was right And OMFG mode on your E-Tac is just plain scary.

            Also besides his son, we have at least two other members getting Tac Ones in the next few months.

            I was told having a warp feed turns a lot of heads, if thats the case and I have a lot of people coming up to me hopefully I will be able to use it as an oppurtunity to "expand the cult"

              Glad to see ya join us! Always looking for new recruits! (Like the Army or something...)

              Not too many guns interest me like they used to either. E/X/EP/PneuMags all do still, and same with Vikings and Excals, and Ego's... and I really like my Shocker. But that's about it for the newer guns. Recently I've been in love with pumps and my 'Mag.

              Don't feel bad for owning an Ion. We all make mistakes.

              Oh, and what do you mean by "cult"?! We prefer "Divine Religion" (note the caps).

                Be prepared to hear alot of OMFG, what is that? WTF, look at that guys gun! Warp sure is a head turner and fun to play with if you don't mind the extra weight. I run a warped xmag with a red dot scope on top and it is great to have a gun like this. Like you said, a mag has a soul (no wonder it's so heavy) :) and shoots better than any gun i've owned. Just beware of the noobs, they will probably be so intimidated with your setup they'll try to avoid you on the woodsfield.

                      Thanks again for the welcome!

                      Sorry, I will make sure to remove "Mag Cult" from my hooded priests robe and replace it with "Divine Religion"

                        Interesting.... I can see the commercial now, "Do guns have a sole?" "Find what your looking for at AGD"

                        And yes people from AGD come here and read what you say. :)

                              Maybe a alteration of the current slogan: Because quality and soul shoot straight

                              EPIC_Vader is right tho, mags have definatly something about them that other guns lack... I've owned and held and tried various markers out there, but they all lack something. Never could lay my finger on what.
