STOP GOING OFF TOPIC..


Trauma, do you have access to compressed air or can you afford a HPA tank? If you get a mag, IT IS ESSENTIAL that you get a compressed air tank. You're mag will love it, so will your family.
Mags don't need a lot to work well.

PF Mag
Drop forward
Good barrel
Forefrip
Compressed air
12v revvy

You can find so many sweet mags on ebay, pbn and pbc for $300 and under. Check it out.

Is buying a gun used ok (over the internet)?

and why do you want to sell you'r guns if you like them so much?
If you'r good with them. and you arn't gona start palying any higher levels of skill, why spend a bunch of money to get something you don't need?

Yeah, if you want to, do it.

I mean I want a timmy, I have enough money to buy 2 probobly. But I can't justify that. I don't see the point. I don't do tournies, and a better gun won't help me much (but that's cuz I suck .j/k)

Very nice, precaution = good. With a stab., anti-siphon and filter you should get legendary mag performance. I say mag.
Seems you're already set for a mag if you sell your two m98s.

I suggest you shoot a mag before you buy one. I didn't know what to expect, but I ended up liking the trigger alot. If you buy one used with a bunch of ANS parts or something in it, ask the owner if he still has the stock parts (which are better). Alot of times, aftermarket parts can screw your gun up. If you get your mag, it'd be wise to get an AGD mag kit, incase the o-rings are crap. I had to buy a parts kit when I got my mag cause some of the parts were cruddy.
If your mag works well, just oil it after each use and it'll continue to work well :P. Very simple gun, I say buy.

EDIT:
If you want to play tourneys or are getting started, Mags are an excellent choice. Lots of tourney players have owned/still own a mag atleast once in their careers. Some members of Rage used mags..but now they got Adrenaline Angels :P

A tourney lock is just like a velocity lock on a spyder or such.
Ok, when you're adjusting your mags velocity, you do it by screwing in the back piece. The tourney lock goes around this back piece. You screw in the set screw to put the back piece in place, thus making it non-able to adjust your velocity during a game (pheww)

Level 7 valve. Mag's valves are based on their serial numbers. Mine's a later model so it's probably lv. 6 or 7. Older ones are usually levels 5/6. This is no MAJOR deal, level 5/6's work great aswell. If you have a lv. 5/6 valve, I believe you can send it in to AGD, cost free, and they'll give you a lv. 7 valve.

Blake, Mags were designed before HPA was commonly available. They were designed with and for Co2. Like any other paintball gun, liquid co2 is not good for them and will affect performance. If you want to run a Mag on co2 go ahead. Using a vert adapter, Exp chamber or remote will keep liquid out of the gun. I've been running My mag on co2 for years and it has always performed reliably.
