Re: When to use mag feed?

That order date is for store stock - pre-orders will be out this week. I am just curious how many people will spend the money on a kit they use sometimes or mag fed only. I play pistol (TPX) against space guns and semi already all the time and don't have problems. I Think a mag fed kit is like a TPX on Roids and cant wait!

Re: When to use mag feed?

I've pretty much quit playing paintball (college), but I'll be getting a kit sometime. I'll use it for woodsball, and keep the Ego just for speedball. So 50% of the time I guess.

Re: When to use mag feed?

I'll have to play with my kits first.... get used to them, and then decide how and when I'll be playing with them. I know with my B5 and Phenom, I've had the nasty habit of spraying way to much paint out on practice days! (partly because of the crappy paint, partly because the guns shoot so nicely!!!)

If its true the pre-orders are being shipped, I'll give mine a try down at Living Legends in a couple weeks!

Re: When to use mag feed?

100% of the time for me, since my wife has "taken ownership" of my B5..

Not that I mind, it didn't fit me very well physically, ergonomically, and my playing style. But God that is a sweet setup to cut loose with. But its light, tight, and a powerful weapon (rate of fire, boost of self-confidence, and intimidation to the enemy), so my wife likes to call dibs on it whenever we get to go out and have fun on the fields.

But that is OK, I prefer heavy rifle setups anyhow and I don't use much paint. But my 98 will lay down cover fire (for me or anyone else for that matter!) if it needs to through the use of a Super RT trigger mod and complete cyclone overhaul. Besides, it has it's own intimidation factor built into it as well. I mean.. look at that thing in my avatar pic. When used right with the correct mindset, it isn't hard for me to become the "Most Wanted" operator during both the team making phase and during the battle itself.

Re: When to use mag feed?

But with the conversion to mag-fed (something of which I still haven't gotten to test yet since I am away from home for a few more weeks!), I should be more effective in a way. I will be able to shed some toxic weight from the marker itself and carry only what is necessary to do the job. I should be able to focus on my favorite part of paintball..

Re: When to use mag feed?

When mine arrives, I will be using First Strikes for the majority of the time. I am not looking forward to zeroing the scope, wasting $ on the calibration. After that, it should be rock & roll.
