Eclipse automag questions

[Russell Smith]

Mags are great and if it is less than £60.00 is good enough value. But remember one thing, one of the popular mods at the time was a unnecessary double trigger and to fit it you had to remove the trigger guard, that would no longer be allowed so you would not be able to use that at a regular site.
I use a fully mechanical level 10 Euro-Mag when I play woodland events and I have no bother competing against the new electronic generation.

It most definatley has NO trigger guard and does have a double trigger. Wondering if this will still be allowed at the indoor walk on that me & a mate are going to on wednesday

Hes apparantly used it at NPF sutton colfield before with no hassle, maybe because no one was sharpe nough to spot it

Thanks for the tip tho

More or less everything that has been said is spot on, and mags are great markers, also in there day they were the kings. Your not really looking at making money on this, unless it's a special, as there were quite a lot of splash anno'd mags out there.

A trigger gaurd could be added, i've seen a few done.

Yes. But does he know that?

try for £30.

Hes considering buying a newer marker and I've reccomended he sells me his automag and puts the money towards a second hand ion
(which I will be buying on his behalf on here if hes sells it to me)

MAy be able to get it a little cheaper than £50, I'm also after his old JT strap aswell as I think its also worth a few quid. Again...will post up pics of it on wednesday as I know theres a few 'strap nuts' on here that will be able to tell me if it is a good find or not. MAy consider giving him one of my old flex masks for it

Cheers again for the info, hopefully I can get some accurate info once I get pics up.
