MacDev Sonic frame or Zenitram 45 Grip frame

I currently use a 03 Bko with upgrades listed in my sig and a Halo B....... I am looking to buy a new trigger frame and I was wondering which of these 2 you would recommend buying.

[lotus_esprit5]

if you can find a Sonic frame, definately get it. But they arent made anymore and are very rare and hard to find. Odds are you wont be seeing one for sale any time soon. So with that being said, you will probly have to end up getting a Zeni frame, which is also a very good frame.

how bout an acid frame... what do you think bout those

[lotus_esprit5]

the Acid frame is awesome.

[austin4023]

wuld u recommend the zenitram or acid, becus i dont think i wuld be able to find the macdev

[lotus_esprit5]

depends. if you like 45 frames then get the Zeni, if you like 90* frames then get the Acid. Both are great frames, just depends on whether you want 90 or 45*.

[austin4023]

so they perform the same?

[TheBackMan]

I don't believe so. The Zeni is magnetic, the acid is not. I guess you could always do a magnetic trigger job on an acid frame though...

[lotus_esprit5]

you cant reall directly compare them. They are both very well made, but very different. one is a magnetic 45*, the other is a spring-returned vert frame.

So it just depends on your preferences. if you like vert frames, you will get better performance out of the acid. if you prefer 45* frames, the Zeni will be better for you. The Zeni is also magnetic, so if you like magnetic triggers, like on eblades, then maybe the Zeni is for you.

so each frame may perform better for different people depending on their preferences.

I think you can also probly get Acid to put one of their roller triggers in an Acid frame for a little extra.

The Acid is more expenmsive, they usually run around $120, while the Zeni is $90. but the Acid is pretty much custom made depending on what you want, so that justifies the price, it also looks sweet.

and you can put magnets in the acid frame to

[TheBackMan]

Does the acid frame come with an acid custom trigger? Also, could you not just remove the spring from your acid frame and replace it with repelling magnets?

[lotus_esprit5]

yes you could do all that. Actually, you could probly get Acid to do that for you. Just email them ask, they'll probly be able to do just about anything you want regarding a frame. magnets, roller trigger, whatever. just tell them what you want and they'll get back to you on pricing.

I e-mailed them asking them about a price prolly...I dunno over a week ago, no answer.
