Mag Fed

[Leighsmith]

Spoken to one of the raptors about ATS markers, and apparently they are a bugger to get working correctly, but once they are working they are awesome, I think they are basically and 'autococker' based mechanism with as canon fodder said an elegant mag design. So long as the bolt action isn't like a tiberius I can't see much going wrong with them once you get it working right. Mag fed markers are just too damned expensive unless you use them all the time, my tib T9 spends most of it's time in the cupboard or as a pistol for CQB stuff (probably once/twice a year). Tac caps on any cyclone/ripclip equipped marker is much more popular. Although got to admit the most fun I've had was holding off a group of players with my pistol, two mags and a pod of first strikes, to this day I'm not sure how I managed to get away with it but it was freaking awesome

I think it would be much easier to have a single 9V battery in ease magazine driving a conveyer belt system, so there would be no crushing of the balls, and the balls get pushed right into the breach perfectly every time. (9V hardly takes up any room either.). With the mech and battery in the centre of the magazine, you could get say 20 to 25 balls in with perfect feeding? (That or a bigger capacity battery is in the gun and activates the mag on contact with the breach.

TiPx 20 round mags 'zetamags' and first strike blocks are now available, the first strike blocks are on eBay

Any mag that you have to turn over halfway through is cheating - its not a 20 round mag its 2 10 round mags screwed together - this applies to the dmags and the zetamags.

my t68 standard can hold 18.. and if you are going magfed, then u need to be able to manage and use ur ammo efficantly

magfed markers separate the men from the boys.
Me I can barely hit someone with a hopper full, Upmost respect to you users.

The Scarab Arms mags can also take 18 balls without having to turn the mag around halfway through!!
