Was there a different version in the US?

[Bolter]

Also, does anyone have any info on the hump in the grip frame? The only other one Ive ever seen was on my xmag, which was an emag, upgraded to an xmag.

i dont think that the US got the newer style ones, i think they had a metric threaded fill nipple or something weird on them. can't remember it has been awhile.

I think early Emag frames had the hump on them and they were later taken off. My first set of lowers had the hump on them.

Yep, you are on the right track. Since the Xmag was machined overseas @AGDE John Sosta custom built a bunch of the earlier Xmags. You will see many of the CNC/Euro "STD" bodies paired with old E-mag valve numbers. Check out "We are the lucky Ones" on Xmagworld to see all of the different valve numbers.

This gun is pretty neat because it came out of the 1st batch released to the general public with the "X-MAG" valve. This particular gun screams out europe because of the "hump back" frame and PMI perfect bore barrel. I have not seen any AGD USA released Xmags with the regular e-mag grip so it is easy to say that it is from AGDE.

The reg is pretty cool as well. I know Jackie/John would sell them as well. Below is a picture showing off some of their stuff from 10+ years ago....

Dude I want one of those regs.

I was thinking the same thing...

Sadly, it looks like he only has half the reg.... hopefully with the internals intact.

That reg ended up being called an Abaddon. I have a Yellow/Red/Black fade. It is a re-imagined Armageddon with the important point of having metric threads on the ports. Also, one of the benefits is that the back half of the Abaddon is aluminum, so yeah, it's every-so-slightly lighter than an Armageddon... and it's black.

However, the Abaddon front is compatible with the back (bottle) half of an Armageddon, so you can use the stylish front half with the back half sitting on your old tank.
