RT ULE Custom
-nickel plated intelliframe with intelli feed hookup to my 12v xboard
-level 10
-x valve
-red ULE body
-centerflag 68/4500
Recommended Upgrades:
Definatly if you buy it new get the intellifeed, also the ULE Body (makes it look secksy), and the ULE trigger pull kit
Strengths:
Definatly that it is pretty consistant. Also the intellifeed.
Weaknesses:
The fact that the trigger pull is still like a mile long as usual mag.
Review:
Overall it is a great marjer. Very acurate and shoots nice lines! I absolutely love mine and i havent even gotten a chance to fully use it yet. The intellifeed is a nice addition to this marker. I would have to say it is also one of the nicest looking markers, and definatly the nicest non electro mag.
Conclusion:
I would definatly reccomend this marker. First because it so is accurate. And second because it is relatively cheap for what you get.
I've used to many too list, and when any gun is set up to the players needs will seem like an incredible gun comparibly speaking. the rt offers an extremely high rate of fire, when set up properly very consistent and very accurate, Ive had mine submerged on accident a couple of times during play and she tough'd through it.
Marker Setup:
Custom milled body, custom fitted grip, hand filed trigger sear, internal work, custom drop forward combination, custom milled frame rail, lvl 10 bolt , micropolished and teflon'd feed tube, micropolished and teflon'd feedtube on/off, jacko infinity 12 inch, J&J ceramic 12 inch,J&J ceramic 14 inch
Recommended Upgrades:
Heh shoot me an email on recommended upgrades, but basics are THE LEVEL 10 BOLT a barrel a good adjustable regulator, and a high speed hopper of some sort.
Strengths:
durable buildable parts avialibility very high firing rate, fun to tweak.
Weaknesses:
has a bad reputation for chopping paint (i can testify to that)
Review:
Its an awesome gun if your willing to put time into it, and the results will vary but then again I've never found an rt quite like mine. I suggest you find your playing style before buying this gun, it can be demanding at sometimes but will surprise you with its performance.
Conclusion:
Everything depends on your style of play, this gun can be a very up close and personal marker, combine that with accuracy and a high rate of fire with the ability to move it quickly and you've got yourself a potent hand held aresonal.
Currently 2 markers: 1) Automag RT with Lvl 10 Upgrade & Armson Stealth Barrel 2) Evil Omen EF-1 with Hammerhead w/ Fin Kit Barrel (Both markers run on 68/4500 nitro tank)
Recommended Upgrades:
The level 10 Upgrade is a must! Other than that, a good barrel and an electronic hopper both will help.
loud, breaks paint occaisionally (without level 10 upgrade), below average air efficiency
Review:
I got this automag rt for next to nothing on Ebay. The seller was convinced it was a piece of junk. After sending it to AGD for the level 10 upgrade and minor repair work, the marker ended up costing me around $250. (Incidentally, I had to send it in to AGD twice because they messed up the first time, but that is another story.)
The first time I played with it after the work was done, I was amazed! The marker had a very solid feed. It fired accurately and consistently. The variation of fps at the chrono was only +/- 3 fps. This marker has the fastest trigger pull of any mechanical (non-electro) marker on the market without a doubt.
I have played with it in varoius recball situations, including rain, cold weather, dirt, sand, and mud. If you maintain it properly (which isn't hard), it won't let you down. I also have had no ball breaks in the breach since installing the level 10 upgrade.
Conclusion:
I would highly recommend the automag rt or rt pro to anyone interested in a rugged recball gun that is consistent and reliable. The level 10 upgrade is also highly recommended to prevent ball breaks. The RT is probably a little too slow to keep pace with todays top dollar electros, but it is more dependable and less costly. I would give it a 10 if it were a little bit more air efficient, but that is really the only negative I can find on an otherwise fantastic marker.
lv10 bolt and a new trigger frame if you have the single trigger for it
Strengths:
extremely fast, solid feel, most consistant gun iv ever shot, dead accurate with my setup
Weaknesses:
little on the heavy side, doesnt effect me though. big big gas hog
Review:
get a big tank for this beast. this is one of the most accurate... or should i say consistant guns on the market. the shootup hasnt ever been a problem for me, just how much of a gas hog this thing is : / i can fire very fast with this gun. at a bps "tournament", i got 12 ball per second fanning the trigger. that ladies and gentel men is speed : )
Conclusion:
you wont be dissapointed if you get this gun. it has nothing over the rt pro other than its out of warrenty, but you shouldnt run into anyproblem that u cant fix urself
i give the gun a 9.5..usally id mark it a 9, but the average rating is a little low i think, so 10 it is
Level 10, 68/4500 , New Barrel! and get a Hyperframe... It is so unbelievably FAST.
Strengths:
This gun is so durable and fast. This thing outshoots angels with the Hyperframe.
Weaknesses:
It is kind of heavy, but the big tank (118/3000) balances it quite well.
Review:
This gun is sweet. You have to get the LVL 10 though, or else you will chop like a blender. A barrel is necessary too... Everyone knows that stock barrels eat paint. The addition of the HyperFrame was easily the best addition though... The RT is capable of up to 25+ without measurable shoot down. Well, the Hyperframe pushes it to its potential.
Conclusion:
This is a great gun on all levels, Rec-ball and Tourny-ball.

Weaknesses:
none that i can think of.
Review:
Okay, I never owned this gun but I tried it out in a tournament. I never liked AGD even though I never tried most of their products. I am more of an electronic gun kind of guy if you know what I mean. I was shooting at the tournament, and never bothered to turn it up. The limit was 300 fps, and I was all the way down at 230. Not only that, I was playing back man. Now, low fps and back men dont mix. I averaged 2 to 3 guys a game in a 5 man tournament. We ended up wining the tournament, so in my opinion, if it can win tournaments, it is good enough to be considered a good gun. Unless you want to say that its the player and not the gun, I would have no objection. haha

Automag 68 classic
Marker Setup:
AutoMag RT w/Freak w/Warp
Shocker 4x4 w/Freak
Both with 68/3000 ACI Bullbog and 12v Revvy
Recommended Upgrades:
Get a ANS venturi bolt and the intelliframe trigger frame. Get the freak and a large N2 tank.
Strengths:
ROF is amazing, Fairly accurate, More compact then most markers, Easy as Hell to clean very low maintenance do to the lack of moving parts. Comfortable balanced well.
Weaknesses:
Expensive, not electro but that aint to bad. Upgrade tend to be very pricey. Heavy for the most part. Phased out for the new Rt Pro so part will be hard to come by soon, GAS hog to some extent my 68ci /3000 preset tank get about 500-700 shot per fill, maybe if I had lower reg it would rock but at 850 its a hog. I ordered a Flatline reg but hasnt come yet.
Conclusion:
Good all around, if you have the cash. Tourney ready very low maint I recommend
Fires very fast
Doesn't look like much. People might underestimate you
Simple design..A tube with a bolt, powertube, and reg. Unscrew a screw, and they all come out. No flying springs coming out or small parts to loose.
**Level 10 UPGRADE**
No chops
No kickback
Lighter bolt
Weaknesses:
You will go through alot of paint with this. I normall shoot a hopper and pod a game if it is long (with my automag). During the first 2 minuted I was down 3 140 pods and a hopper (with RT).
The front part of body with holes in it. I would just cut it off if I had a body like it.
It's expensive! Don't buy this thing new..get one used off ebay.
Conclusion:
This is one of the few guns I actually like with single triggers. To fire is effortless, it is like full auto..just hold down the trigger. The RT will take care of the rest. The Retro valve can fire faster then any other gun. 26 BPS, Prooven.
If you have LX -- You can fire fast, and do it without the chops. And no kickback either.
Rt Automag, Kapp Drop forward, Dye Aluminum 14", Dye Boomstick 14", Warp Feed, Blade Trigger, 68 cu in. crossfire nitro tank with on/off valve, Nasco site, Halo Revolution Hopper, Intellifeed.
Recommended Upgrades:
Drop Forward w/Any Nitro Tank with a regulator, A new barrel (Any DYE or ALL AMERICAN barrels will do), and a Warp feed.
Strengths:
This gun is perfect, it is unbelievable speed, its accuracy is perfect, its performance is great, it is very quiet, very easy to clean, it is very light weight.
Weaknesses:
There is nothing wrong with this gun if you know how to use it.
Conclusion:
This is a great gun, I recommend anyone to buy it, but for newbies, you should start off with a simple gun like a spyder or something like a tippmann model 98, but if you really want to get the taste of a mag then get just a simple automag 68, or a minimag. Dont be too hasty (You'll be sorry if you are).
