Have to sell the E-mag, what gun to get next......

[cyrus-the-virus]

Well because of the avalability of air around here I have to sell my E-mag to anouther marker that won't freeze up every 2 shot's on A/S CO2.

Problum is nothing really compairs to my E-mag.... I've tried about 2 dozen diffrent kinds of markers and nothing seems to "fit" quite as nice as the E-mag does.

The trigger on my mag is butta smooth and micro swich gun's just dont feels as smooth. I haven't had a chance to try out an optical trigger yet but those are few and far between.

anyone got any suggestions? What did you move onto when you moved on from mags?

Thanks

Cy

Well, my first gun was a Spyder. My second gun was a Spyder. After my second Spyder, I decided to look for something better. Something higher end. That's when I picked up my fiirst 'Mag.

I was an idiot and sold that thing. Bench frame, classic valve, tuned lvl 10. It rocked.

From that, I "upgraded" to a 'Cocker.
Then a custom built 'Cocker.
Then to a Gen-E Matrix
Then back to a 'Cocker.
Then to a Defiant 2.
Then to another classic 'Mag
Then to a Shocker SFT.

And after all that "upgrading", I'm back to a 'Mag (well, a soon-to-be EP 'Mag).

Really, keep the EMag and get nitrogen. 'Mags are just too good to get rid of. Seriously.

He said he can't readily get air there so "buy an air tank" isn't an option. I really wish people would read...

Are you looking mech or electro?

[Eagle]

you put co2 through an emag?!?

Classic valve, I wouldent dream of putting it through an X-valve.

Electro preferably.

The marker you seek is made by AKA.

Either a Viking or an Excalibur.

Anything that will function at sub 500 psi reliably will function just fine off of regulated CO2.

That puts you into a great many electro markers.

If you want to run CO2 reliably you will want to pre-regulate it just like you would HPA. Buy a female stabilizer or a manifold type MaxFlo (the older ones that look like a "Z"), and couple that with a good anti-siphon CO2 tank. Set the primary reg that the tank screws into at about 450 psi, and then set the velocity of the marker with the secondary vert reg that the marker normally comes with.

It works like a champ. I've run every high end marker I've owned off of CO2 at one time or another, without a single problem.

When you live in the sticks like we do, you gots to make adjustments.

1.used excalibur double regged with one of the regs being a stabalizer. smooth as butter people say some of the most effiecient marker on air.

2.viking same as the above

3. Newer WAS boarded electric tippmann with the anti chop bolt. it's a sear tripper that would love co2.

4. palmer pursuit e-blazer

ive got an etac and a 98 custom.i love my etac but i love to use my 98 as well.not the same feel but its very rough n rugged and is a relly great gun out the box.the custom pro can be made electroinc so you could look into that as well.

waddya think this is?

AO?

i am not sure how well if any better or worse a mini would function on co2 but thats a consideration since the trigger should be similar to the e-mag...

maybe you should stick to mech mode on the e-mag and get a classic valve or something...

imo you wouldnt notice a difference if you swapped valves, atleast not likely

ive used everything else, and decided on a mech(unassisted) for my final gun to date

although some trigger assistances are tempting

CCI Phantom.. Nuff said.

[turbo chicken]

i'm really curious... where do you live/play where there isn't air ...

i'd say just get a classic valve... put the on off in it ... set it at 13BPS and have at it ... keep the emag valve when air does become more available...

it may even be worth it to invest in a scuba tank ... even if you have to travel to get it filled ... that way you can fill your own air ...

personally i'd get the classic valve first (cheapest option) then eventually the scuba tank ... if you find someone to split the cost of the scuba tank if could be an affordable option also.

All good posts.

If you have the coin go AKA. Palmer female stab as an ASA and then run it to the 'winder.

Might I also suggest an old school shocker. I have never owned a gun that has been more consistant, and I ran it off of a single reg with no anti-siphon.

You are obviously lying.

You are obviously lying.

Um. Yeah. Sure he is.
Quit stirring the pot. Don hasn't even posted in this thread yet.
