Re: Tacamo Mag Conversion

I think they will to be honest just because the kind of people who are going for the conversion kits are gonna get pissed off at the amount of rounds eventually. If they came out with a longer magazine that could hold 30 or even just 25 rounds it would be a lil more worth while. I can't wait for next year, I dont which will be more popular, these conversion kits because they are great looking, or the pinocio cyclone hopper (I saw the prototype its pretty sick =D ).

Re: Tacamo Mag Conversion

You could always get a group of friends together and order the magazines in groups of 5. Then they are $27 each. I'll be placing a order for my 2 kits amd for two of my brothers then we are ordering 5 mags extra to drop the price down. I can handle $27 but $37 is kind of out of the ball park.

Even Tiberius sells their First Strike mags for $29. They started to understand $40 is too much.

Re: Tacamo Mag Conversion

One of the main points of mag fed, is limited ammo. If your not into limited ammo, mag fed probably isnt the way to go. lol

We do limited ammo games/scenarios. This is a milsim'ers dream come true. The Mag fed kits, and the box mag. I am really looking forward to these kits. The mags do cost a bit, but I'll still get a kit and eight spare mags and eventually the box mag as well. There are very few things in paintball that are cheap. The conversion kits I rate as cheap even at full price. The mags however, well, probably better they are not cheap. But the money your gonna save on buying paint over a year of playing, doing limited ammo mag fed, is going to pay for those magazines.

Re: Tacamo Mag Conversion

I love the look and the idea. I really would like to get the setup and a box mag but at that much money its not worth it to me, my set up i have now works just fine and a tac cap saves rounds, so does my phantom.
Like i said, love the look and idea just would rather wait to see if they lower the price and see what the reviews look like.

Re: Tacamo Mag Conversion

Does anyone know if the ACT technology will still work in the new kit?.... Because mag feeds are more likely for ball chops, would the ACT cancle out the problem?

Re: Tacamo Mag Conversion

I would think that ACT will still work since you will be using the 98 firing system. Thats just my logic anyways.
