Also not suprised, I still keep my old RT in my gear bag, because of one simple reason...it will never fail to work if all my other guns take a dump. And yes, the level 10 is super sweet once you get it tuned properly. But lets face the facts about Mags.

1) no trigger frame/setup that I have ever found for a non-electro mag has ever let me come even close to my 'cocker with hinge for ROF once I got used to it. That is just my personal experience, but I find the mag harder to shoot.

2) Mag is a terrible gashog, it gets even worse when you dump a LVL 10 into the equation

3) In no way will you get the range out of a Mag that you will out of a well tuned 'cocker. I also personally believe accuracy on a Mag is less than other guns, but that can be argued till the end of time.

I have no basis of comparison for other top end guns, But I own a MagRT and a 'cocker, both with several improvements, and its not even a choice for me which one I grab first.


: Honestly, I'm not suprised to see there aren't many mags. Standard mags are giving way to electro's, also, The level ten is a fantastic upgrade, however does decrease efficiency. It does stop ball chops, I have seen it work. However, it does require tinkering, and you do need patients. Once it is setup right, you will never want to change. However, X-mags and other electronic mags seem to be taking over if any mags at all. I really don't know why.
