Hmmm, that's an interesting question. Reason being that a guns accuracy is determined entirely (assuming they have the same barrel and paint) by consistency. Why is that interesting you ask, well the timmy doesnt come with a reg, and most people choose to do the LP mod which means your inline reg regulates the pressure on the ball. You can buy a crap inline reg and get +-10, or you can buy a good inline reg and get +-1. Your choice. Using the stock setup though, with the HP reg not LP modded, you're looking at +-2 or 3 fps. The emag seemed pretty accurate to me but I never had a chance to fire one over the chrony so I could not tell you. Paintballstar did a review of the emag, and through their testing got it was +-5.35 on the first 30, and +-4.82 . Keep in mind though, that a gun should be broken in first before you'll get the absolute best consistency, and that mag wasnt. My personal choice would be (actually it was) the timmy because the chop eyes really do work, and a gun that will fire as fast as either the emag or timmy or other guns of that speed will chop. With a halo though.... we shall see

Yeah, If I could I would get an E-Mag just because of the fact it can turn into an RT if battery goes dead. But Both are practicly the same just different layout. I hear some don't like the battery pack where it is and is odd to hold. But thats just a persons preference. Try em both and see which one you like. And They both have excellent tech support. Lots of people own mags and know a lot about them so if you run into any trouble, not that you will, someone mgiht know whats wrong.
It has a setting that will let it run like an RT?

I would prefer a Timmy.
It is more consistent and cost a little less.

there both good...
emag is heavy, take off site rail... and it will weigh about the weight of an angel... 26 bps... do you know anyone who can shoot this fast???? its nice and compact...
timmy... really light... tall and skinny... shoots 14 bps... nice ano, nice milling... ace...

as the resident matrix enthusiest i am forced to speak.
Hmm...
Um...
Matrix!!
Why, because who needs an ACE when your gun cant cut a ball.

I can outshoot any loader any where, any time.
Bring it on:

9V
12V

Notice warp feed is missing. But it looks like A$$ ugly.

Do you guys realize that that fool trickdaddy thinks that he can get 26 balls per seccond with an emag.... HAHAHAHAHA its impossible especially since your loader cant even feed that fast...
Oh and by the way forget the Timmy and Emag.... Go for the Shocker... ive put 4 cases through mine and i have not chopped one ball.... Oh and the matrix with the low pressure mod would rank up there 2...
By the way ive heard some pretty bad things bout the emag... It almost seems like your gambling like 1out of 3 is a POS.
Sacattack
05-24-2001, 07:28 PM
Um hey jesterdude just to let you know the warpfeed can only feed as fast as the loader providing the paint for it... think about it where does the warpfeed get the paint??? oh yeah a 12volt (or what ever loader your using.) So in that respect it cant shoot nearly as fast as they say it can...
elTwitcho

Actually, while there are balls in the wheel (8 shots) it will feed at 16-18 bps. It's only afterwards when the wheel is empty that it feeds at the speed of your loader. nice try though

that is waht i meant, you cant keep up a sustained ROF of more that about 13

Well I am pretty unbiased, since I have never tried either, but from looking at reviews and pictures, and price. I would have to go with the timmy.
Aslo the E-mag in my opinion is just plain ugly.
But you don't have to take my word for it.

I wasn't just going on looks. but what is the pro team version?
I didn't mean to offend you, I don't know much about Electronic guns. I was just sayin that based on the previews they had gotten and price and last yes looks.
They seem about even in reviews.
Timmy is better in price.
Timmy is better in looks. That is what I based it on.
And don't say looks don't matter. Cuz that is BS, nobody would buy a ferrari if it looked like a rusted 1980 volvo.
And usually the better looking things also are better.
what's better
F-16 or P51
Compaq or early model Mac
K2 rollerblades or rollerblade rollerblades.
You make the decision. And remember opinions are like a@#holes, everyone has them and they all stink (to someone else)

Are you talking about the AGD RT Pro Polished? That gun is cool looking . IT is actually a whole lot cooler than any other one of that type I have seen. And it is cheaper than the Intimadator at that site. But then again the pricing in Pbreview.com's prices arn't always right.
Mabye you were right:)

Is it the e-Mag Micro 2000 Competition
$1,300.00 ?
I can't find the exact one you are talking about. That one is pretty cool looking too, but I don't like that (i think it is an expansion chamber) thing shaped like a clip.
Oh well. Seems you and I are the only ones posting here any more. How long you been paintballing, u sound pretty knoladgeble (sp?). you seem to know what you are talking about untill you posted that blo backs suck in the blow back section.
That's like making fun of spyder's at the spyder cup.

That looks like a prop from some homo-erotic 80s science fiction movie. Plain emags look good, but that thing just looks so friggin lame

It'd look alot better without the lame sight. Identical to Flesh Gordan's Cum Gun.
