Alright guys talk me into it

[Rembrandt]

Well I'm fixing to take a break from scenario play for a while and mainly play some rec ball on and off so I can get my finances in order. I have my Ion now which I love and my Shocker which I like alot but it is a horrible gas hog and I'm mainly looking to downgrading to a mech. As most of you may know I can NOT touch a cocker. I love them alot just they don't love me. I'm not really looking into a pump b/c they are fun to play just they aren't really me. And tippys are out of the question b/c they are just so big and heavy. So that leaves mags.

I tried to trade for a Tac-One once and it went to hell, we just couldn't get anything tuned right so I sent it back. All the mag owners say thats a fluke and tell me to try another mag.

So guys talk me into it. Pros/cons.

hehe, all is good. Mags are simple and elegant. If you have any mag questions just ask me or skeet. We can talk you into the drivers seat

I like knowing I can hit what I aim at.

Thanks to mcarterbrown.com the new nickname for my mag is "Dumpster Cat" and that makes me laugh so hard it hurts.

your welcome for that geoff...

You should really look at getting a sniper... It will allow you to get your finances in order and also allow you to play at the same time.

Well I'm still gonna play no matter what just not scenarios for a while. Can't afford the traveling costs. Plus pumps are fun just not really me. Plus when I wanna really shot I can't do that with a pump.

Thats why I love the mag. I can shoot slow or fast and anywhere in between. Don't taint his mind Rich! lol

Hi Rembrandt,

dont forget the Mag loves the Air. Its a Gas Hog. You need a 4500 PSI Tank and then you need to fill it up very soon. Ill get around 700 Rounds out of mine. You know my Vertical Feed Mag dont You????

I love them to death but Gas Hogs.

Drop me a PM if you want to know more...

Not sure that I agree that Mags are gas hogs. This is more of a factor that they run on high pressure, and you can't utilize the remaining air in your tank once you are below about 750-800 PSI. You should actually get about the same number of shots (compared to an Ion, Shocker...) out of the same tank from 4500 PSI down to about 800 PSI. I have tried this comparison with my Angel, and it holds true for me.

The advantage for some of the low pressure markers is that you can get a bunch more shots from 800 PSI down to 250-300 PSI. The Mag is just unable to utilize that pressure range, where others can.
