    My local pro shop impressed the hell out of me. They're the typical modern shop but recently have been picking up AGD markers and parts.

    I also got a couple lions stickers out of them.

      Amazingly the field I have has a Retro valve chillin' in the display case. It wasn't there last month, and I've never seen anyone else there with a Mag, but props to them.

I now consider Precision Sports my favorite paintball store of all time. They might not have many upgrades, and they do cater to airsoft enthusiasts, but they won me over right there.

          Yes ... www.hitandrunpaintball.com rules ... they even have rental mags ... and "the owner" has been known to do some amazing things to a classic valve...

          also paintball and more like a mile from my house is mag friendly ... in fact he has a dust black vert micromag for sale i've had my eye on... and several other used mags ...

              The field owner where I play, uses nothing but Mags. Then one of his friends there uses a pump-mag.

                The only time I have seen a mag on a wall at a PB store was at Orlando Paintball and it was there one christmas, and still there the next. It is a PFR Classic with no barrel or bottomline or LVL X going for $210. Another store I went to had a few twist lock barrels under the counter and when I asked the employee how much the twist lock barrel was he didn't even know what I meant and pointed at something cocker threaded. Saddness.

                        We have lots and lots of mags on our wall at all times! The owner shoots mags, my colleague and I as well. Also about 40% of our speedball players own mags (not as primary) and a good 20% of our regular players are mag shooters as well.

                        Guys,

                        Paintball Charleston are my heros when it comes to running a smart paintball store. I am not just saying that because they sell our stuff. The point is they sell EVERYBODYS stuff! You go in there and you dont get the "that gun is crap" routine that we hear so often from so many other retailers. They get excited about pumps the same as superguns.

                        So what happens? All the players there have three different guns, I have seen this for myself. They start the day with the electo blaster, work through the afternoon with the mech and when they run low on paint switch to a pump. Every gun is cool to that group and everyone knows what a Phantom pump is and why its hot.

                        Bravo PBC you are the model paintball store! I wish the rest of the industry would figure out what good business is.

                          You all are lucky. I have been laughed out of a shop because I shoot a mag. The owner refused to even order parts for me because I wasn't of the "AGG" croud.

                            Burn the owner of that store at the stake.

                              Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.

                                Which field are they associated with? I have two brothers in law and some nephews that are in Kitsap. I should finally get over there and get them out on the field with my 'not agg enough' mags. Besides, Kitsap sports sells PMI and Evil markers...
