Hey Tom

[FARMER00]

everyone here will agree that you made the best guns ever , but what if the automag never existed? what would you say is the best other gun, what would you personally buy if u couldnt get a mag

EDIT(after all that hubbub below)
10 guns that you would by if you couldnt buy a a mag of anytype
5 mech
5 electro

Thanks, this will be cool to see what the man himself says about the other markers

[minimag03]

This should be interesting.

[EPIC_Vader]

my vote is Ion

a world without automags is a world with no reason to live...

[punkncat]

Lol.....IF he hadn't made his own, what would he be shooting?


Seems like there is a post somewhere around that Tom discusses some other markers he owns.

[bentothejam1n]

cocker

That's not fair ... excluding the only other markers worth shooting ...pshht ... you might get a ... the onlyloption left is something really old school like a vector or something along those lines ...lol

should have been ... pick one electro ... one mech ... that's fair ...

wonder if he opts for a pump ...

If automags never existed half the guns tom will have to choose from will never have existed.

[bentothejam1n]

thats why i said no cocker

youre not making much sense

[Ninjeff]

If automags never existed half the guns tom will have to choose from will never have existed.

Indeed.

Its hard to REALLY calculate the amazing impact the automag had on the industry. Of course, i see what the point of the question is....so carry on. Im interested to see also.

[cyrus-the-virus]

If the automag didn't exsist than HPA most likly woulden't have cought on as fast, if at all.

If I wasn't in the industry but know what I know now.....

I would shoot one of the earlier Angels. I know John Rice and I respect him as an engineer. They made the parts themselves and most were hand fit together ( the breaches were numbered). When your hand fitting parts someone is testing it to make sure it is right. The early cut and carved were great looking guns and the overall design was more elegant than the typical stacked tube. There was a shoot down problem but I could have fixed that.

For a mech I would want a gun I never had to mess with and didn't have to think about, so I would just shoot a Tippy with everyone else.

No other guns impress me at the gut level. The DM's came from the only gun design to be sold three times because of issues. Bob Long called me when he had gun problems. SP never designed anything and the Cockers were for tinkerers.

End of story.
