I mis the AGD days when they were in there prime. I loved both the Automag and Autococker. I guess you really have to be old school to appreaciate the full meaning to WGP and AGD, for along time they were the core of our sport next to Tippmann and PMI.

I remember drooling over the Automag RT Pro. I would see those things on the field and shutter if they were on the other team! Those things could toss some paint to be sure!

I can remember the mechanical Auto-response by proteam products for the auto-mag I had one and also recall at the time when they were outlawed because they could shoot faster then 5bps. I liked that system at the time but it had a long trigger pull.

Good Grief!! And I thought (& still do) that people were making much-ado about nothing over RT's, ramping to 15 bps, and guns/triggers in general that will shoot as fast as you can wiggle your fingers.

Reminds me of flag football .....lol ...now you guys don't get started-I'm just kidding (as far as you know).

Back in the early 90's the cap was a good faith rule of 5 bps at the tournies and we had to also have a tourney cap to prevent veloc adjustment. I can remeber trimbling going against a fast shooter back in thows days it was a different type a play then.

I'm sorry CANNIBAL, I thought it was my looks that scared you, not my screaming 7 bps!!!

With all the hubbub about AGD not making anything "new", all you have to look at the good old saying: IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT. Other than coming out with different body styles what you have is a reliable mechanical marker that is capable of throwing paint out like an electro.
