E-mag Lower or Complete marker?

Hey all,

Just wanted to know what would make me save more money, I already have a classic 68 and I was wondering whether I should buy an E-mag lower or the complete gun from Tunaman.

Thanks,
-Oliver

Depends.

Do you want to save money or not. Also if you get a full gun from him as in valve too? As I understand it the classic valve wont do high cycle rates.

I may be wrong though.

If you do decide to get the full gun id also opt for the ULE body just for barrel versatility alone. Also I have heard but dont know for certain that the Emag rail dosnt like classic bodies. I could be wrong on that, It may be a simple matter of the brass barrel pin.

Get the whole shebang. You'll end up getting a new valve anyway because your classic can't be run on the e-mag.

Then you can get Noxx to put your classic in a rifle stock for you and be the envy of all your friends.

A new emag is gonna run you in the upper 900 plus, but that is just how the price is for a new emag.

How about saving up a few hundredth more and get those xmag for around 1300? Or go for a used emag for about 600+

I really don't get why Xmags are so desirable (other than rarity). ACE is sorta redundant with a well-tuned level 10 installed. Interchangeable breeches is cool and all, but do people really swap breeches regularly?

Yeah, you're paying more to get a new mag from Tuna, but look at it this way, you get to custom-build it with stuff you won't necessarily find on a used stock E-mag...Tuna's blade trigger, milled battery pack, ULE bodies, nice shiny new valve etc. It's worth it by the time you upgrade that used Emag you got a deal on.

The only reason to get the xmag of the sfl is just for the rarity, guess to some people it's worth it for that rarity since you can almost build an emag any day of the week, all you need is the lower and a proper rail / on-off.

If you are dead set on getting a new emag though, make sure you have all the cash ready since tuna is pretty busy these day. Send him a message through the site, and remember to ask for a contact # so that you can get the order through smoothly.

Even though a warp emag would be cool :-P
