    Z-Grip Offical AGD Announcement >>>>>

    Guys,

    Man you know how to drive a guy NUTS!! Where were you all 4 years ago!!

    Ok I am going to make you a deal, now listen REAL HARD!!

    I WILL make you another run of Z-Grips. I will make them fit Dye Stickies. I'll even make them in chrome WITH intellifeed mount.

    Here is what you have to do to make me happy.

    First of all if you say you want them and I don't sell them FAST I will never, NEVER, EVER let you talk me into anything like this again.

    Second, I am only going to sell them through our online store not through dealers because I don't want them calling me up and returning them because you all said you wanted them and then didn't buy. Right before we give the go ahead to machine them I will open the store for pre-orders. If we don't get enough we don't go into production.

    Third, they are not going to be cheap! They will be at least 115 without grips. I have to make money on this because it could very well be a one time thing. If I don't sell them all I still have to at least break even.

    Fourth, if you DO buy them like hotcakes and what I hear on this forum IS the word of God then I will be putty in your hands and you can be assured that future pleas will not go unnoticed.

    Time Frame:

    Before we can even think about redesigning the Z-Grip I have to,
    Finish the 4500
    Rework the mold on the nubbins
    Get the Superbolts into smooth production
    Design the ACE system
    Rework the Extreme bodies for the ACE
    Redesign the Warp Feed Module for the Extreme
    Gun Dyno the power tube tips with the Superbolt
    Get the Extreme into production
    Verify the mold fixes in the Warp diverter plate and adaptors
    Get the AGD store photos and descriptions done for ALL our parts and products

    So until you see all the things on this list done don't ask about Z-Grip production. I WILL produce them again unless you don't pre order, so be assured, AGD has spoken.

      You know what..i was never a fan of the Z...i got into mags way too late..but if Tom (the man, the myth, the legend) can make them Chrome w/ Intellifeed mount...i'll take one of the suckers just to play with and maybe build a new mag around it..so there's a vote from someone who never had any interest in the Z...so don't keep bugging him and screw this up..(and i too, promise not to complain and moan and bug anymore...at least about the Z)

              Sounds awesome Tom.. Unfortunately, I need to trade my 68 automag for a good nitro system soon. The new announcement actually makes me want to revamp my mag with a warp, new nitro system, retro valve, and the to-be intelli-z frame.. but realistically I don't have the dough for that..

                  Tom, you are the man.

                  I don't have enough money for a z grip, and i'm not sure if I would like it, but probably. I know that many, MANY people on this board are in love with the z-grips, and that you, Tom, are the coolest guy around. A company owner deciding to make a product because of the guys on the forum HE created is just soo awesome. I love AGD. I can't wait for my mag. Maybe a Zgrip will be in my future (x-mas). YOU ROCK AGD!

                        Good Gawd ppl. All the whining and complaining about where are the Z grips. That fueled by the slipped ad in APG is quite...quite annoying to be blunt. Y'all begged and pleaded and we all know this forum is only but a fraction of the paintball community. Like TK said, if they dont sell like hot cakes, I think webby should release the names and addresses of all the poor souls to have TK personally come and tear you a new one. What if many of you all dont even like the way it feels. Many of you will be first timers for the Z grip. I know for a fact that a good portion of the people that got to try the original run of the Z grip didnt like them from the second they picked it up.
                        I have no idea why this is bugging me so much. Maybe its my time of the month 0:-)

                          Oh wonderful AGD...

                          Just what I need! I already have a ReTro Valve, Flatline, and Freak on my paintball 'To Buy' list. Now I'm going to have to buy a mainbody, rail, and iZ-Grip too! That will be the 2nd AGD marker I have. Guess I'll be selling the 'ol Model98 to finance my 2nd AGD Marker!

                          How about this...I'm only 21. I'll giver you my 1st born (which I won't have for a couple of years, but when I do have it, it's yours) in exchange for any AGD product I need/want - within reason.

                          Way to go AGD, you guys keep kicking up the bar on Customer Service. Read my Sig...
