Wait, you've never actually shot one but you want to build a custom mag from scratch?

There was an AO member who modded a Z-frame to make it electro. Basically just threw a board and a pancake 'noid out of a Hyperframe or something in there. If you want to do it that way, your best bet is to:

Buy a Z-grip (which is hard enough to do), and have someone put the elctronics and solenoid in there for you.

Hunt down a PTP Mircomag body (not Mirco Emag)

Buy an X valve or RTP/Emag valve with the right length O/O pin

like what, a Pneu-Mag on an E-mag? also, what experience do you have? not to belittle you, but Pneu-Mag conversions take a bit of knowledge as well as a lot of tinkering to get right. its not for the beginner. if you take a look on Automags.Org:, in the classifieds as well as other articles on building a Pneu-mag, they can get costly, and do require machine work.

if you have your heart set on a Pneu-mag now, buy one already built. they can be had in the $500-600 range, depending on bodies as well as ancillaries(barrels, frames, rails, etc.).

also, if you have never shot a Pneu-Mag, they are very different than regular Mags. never shot one my self but have always wanted to pick on up. they are a different beast all together. please do a little mor eresearch, as i would hate to see someone pick up something that doesn't suit them or have problems with it because they don't understand it.

Ahh yes, but let us not forget about rapidfire. Tweaked my Tac-One RapidFire and it was good enough I sold my Pneumag. I can walk my mech mag if needed, and don't have all the pneumatics to worry about.

Can't beat the original AGD vision.
