      Get an emag with an xvalve and CNC housing then buy a karta/dallara/chord.

          I would go for the xmag if you have the money. Tunaman said once that the eyes aren't needed, and you could just use the lvl 10. The xmag looks great, it's got a removable breech like an wdp angel, and all the stock parts are nice.

            You make me laugh, I dont mean to pick on you, but seriously....seriously..please get some more info before you post. Oh, and we all know that we dont have to have Tuna's okay to do things, so please stop using him as a canon. (Not Cannon)

            I would also snag up an xmag for a few various reasons.

            1. Intergrated rail, I just like the looks of that.
            2. Ace, its a novelty more so then getting any use out of it.
            3. Removable breech w/ warp breech, (VERY UNLIKE WDP ANGEL). If you choose to switch from virtical to warp you do not have to buy a whole new body, and it will still be an xmag. They dont make warp kartas.

            Also, if you do infact want the rail to be flush with the battery pack and body, a dallara will not work.

              I know what they look like, im more interested in personal preference. Ive been playing with mags since about '96ish(maybe a little sooner), this is going to be the first time ive stepped off and bought an emag however . For me its not about money or functionality, it an sthetic choice


              Thanks for the opinions. Im leqaning towards the xmag just for the sheer uniqueness of it.

              My other thought was a doc nickels fastback body(if he makes more or i can find one) based cocker.

                Opinion :

                Stock ULE Emag , best bang for the buck , most potential IMO and lighter than all other options.

                      Some of the dealers here on AO can fix you up. Not sure if Tunaman does any custom milling, but i believe Luke does.

                      Going for either a Emag or an Xmag is kinda a personal choice, and i went with xmag altho it is heavier than a emag. As said, you don't really need the ace and i have it turned off because for some reason when using a WL feedneck, the sensor does not pick the ball up. (i know, tune the sensitivity) Either way, i dont have any use for it because of lvl10. As for milling, this was one of the reasons i went with xmag. I like it very much, and they are a bit easier to get than a carta emag. (altho that is also very nice)

                      Is there any difference in performance between guns? I don't think so. The internals are pracically the same.

                        I don't know who did the milling for the anno, but... Luke is very good with combining Automags and machines. As for anno, Gruntbull does fantastic work (contact him on MCB).

                            Don't forget that the Dallara rails are not RTp style rails. So if you want the body and rail to match the Dallara is not going to be a choice.
                            Just wanted to make sure you were aware of that...

                              RRfireblade milled that himself, contact him.

                              Since you state this, I would go with an XMag personally. But that's just me. All the choices are great.
