    What kind of body is this?

    Somebody on our dutch forum posted this:





    The guy told me that it was about 8-10 years old, and i think it could be an early type body from pro team products. But i haven't seen one before, so my guess is as good as yours. I'm really interested in knowing more about it, who made it, when, and value.
    I'm not buying this, but if the owner would like to sell i can get you in contact with him.

    Any help is greatly apriciated!!

    Its a euro design? Hmm interesting... I really would like to know more about it. Unfortunantly the owner does not want to sell it... and he also found some other goodies from the attic, like a scorpion pump with AGD micro-ca II stock. He had a 6-pack and is looking if he still has it.

    The name of the company was TVL and this Mag was sold as ‘V2’ or ‘Boxer’ Automag in the early nineties across Europe. There was another nice milling which didn’t cover the valve and some freaky splash designs available. Retail price for the top version was about 2400DM which is actually $1650!

    Yep, TVL body. I used to go and hang out in there store a VERY long time ago.

    They had several different designs of micro mag knock offs.

    I believe they may have changed their name to Reading paintball at one time.

    They used to make the Boxer gun too, (Icon Z knock off) and do custom camo clothing.

    Thanks for all the info guys!!

    I've sent the owner the links to this topic and MCB, i'm sure he'll like the read as much as i did. Somehow it amazes me what people still have after all those years. Some of the mags i have came out of a closet or attic after years of collecting dust. Just imagine what treasures lay hidden away for years, just to pop out all of a sudden.

    I own the original version of this gun body designed by my dad and built in British Aero space. Struggling to attach image.
