Why do I love my mag? The same reason I love my jeep. Lots of people think they are ugly, old, outdated, and there are better, more expensive models out there. But, when it comes down to it, reliability counts. You either love them, or hate them. People always ask why I love my jeep. Its uncomfortable, loud, breezy. But, when I hit 300,000 miles, and they are on thier 3rd vehicle. I smile and say "its a jeep thing, you wouldnt understand. So, when someone says "why do you shoot a mag?" I smile, play against them, and, as they walk off the field, say "its a mag thing..."

this is the last week to post on why you like your mag people ,the post are really good so far its going to be hard ...///

Why I like mags:
-Reliability-becasue you can let your mag sit in your closet for a few weeks, months or years if you take a break from paintball come back and still have a nice working gun with little or no work. And the stock parts are better than most upgrades.
-Lack of popularity- I know some people get upset from not seeing many mags in tournamets. Not being in the 'in croud' is fun, isnt it?
-Because of this forum- I like mags because the company workers/owner actually interacts with customers, frequently, almost daily. Other companies usually jsut go to their tournamet players for advice. And how many companies give away a 900$ piece of equipment just because there was a bunch of people browsing their forum.
-Customer service- AGD has the nice office workers that are always willing to help with problem, help new owners who bought a used mag, get a manual video and the necessary upgrades for their gun..which are usually free too.
-Compactness- Mags are one of the most compact guns. Mine was only 20(even) inches long with a 10 in barrel and a shocktech drop with 68 3k maxflow (tip of barrel to end of tank)
-Simple Design- Mags have a super simple design. Cockers and the moving parts do look good, but with the more moving parts the more things to go wrong. With the simple body design, there are less upgrades...meaning less money into your gun and more to what you spit out of it....atlest thats what I thought when I got my mag.
-Look on peoples faces- I love the look on peoples faces when they have their cockers or other guns and look down on mags (no offence to people who dont own a mag and dont look down on mags)and then after a game of playing getting compliments on how quiet and compact it is after I play them. And I will never forget the one kid that asked me "what kind of spyder is that?"

*EDIT* sorry for spelling, typos and puntuation errors. :P
My mag(still waiting on money to get a freak, so i thought I would give this a shot, cant hurt anything can it?):

I don't have a camera to post a pic. sigh.

I love my mag though. I bought it new in 1993 (a powerfed hopper left level 7) and have never had a failure. It just keeps on workin. No gun on any field intimidates me when I have my mag, because I know its just a mater of time before they either run low on paintball or break down. They certainly won't outshoot me either. I've played 5 on 1 with all the electros on the other team and only me left on my team. They quickly piled up in the Neutral Zone as they tried to hunt me down. He he. As for accuracy, it doesn't get any better. The operation of the mag is so smooth that I can contiually shoot darts through small openings at will. Poor Will. LOL.

I want to put some tender loving care into some well deserved upgrades to my baby, er, I mean mag.

My mag

I have been around many markers, for a long time before I got my mag, I saw what the weak points were, and then I moved on, continuing play with my Trracer. From time to time I would read something more about the "68 Automag" and pushing me a little closer to it. talking with a few friends that owned them and getting to shoot one every now and then. First off I guess you can say I gained a respect for it, now I do nothing but promote the heck out of AGD and the sport.

[paint king]

late.......

Well i think its too late but ill try anyway. I could restate everything the other guys said because they are true but i wont do that because it would bore you all. Plain and simple the Automag is the greatest gun. Need I say more???????
