    Looking for XMag XT00207

    I’m looking for my old XMag. It was a Gloss Black XMag that I got from Pev’s when it was new. I was the original owner. Anybody have it and willing to part with it? PM me. I have lots of Classic Markers for trade bait or a reasonable cash price.

    WANG Force!

    It was very quick which surprised me. It really hasn't changed much at all. The only thing different from when I sold it was that the Fireblade was gone.Other than me I believe it had four other other owners with the last one being in Cali. I've owned other (some famous) Automags. I still own some of them.

    - A Green 68 Automag used by Will of the Jax Warriors. (I still own it)
    - RT Classic #RT03737 which was used by me in a tournament with one of the very first Warp Drives used during a tournament ( I was actually accused of cheating by a couple other teams). (I still own it and the warp drive).
    - EMag #EM00033 a Carl Bonta hack job that I used for a while. This one was the famous grey splash fade and was the first production EMag. It had a E-lightning bolt
    - EMag #EM00035 another Carl Bonta hack job. This was the Blue Splash fade one and the 2nd Production EMag also with the E-lightning bolt. (EMag #EM00034 was primarily the one in all the advertisement in Magazines and I don't know what happened to it).
    - The Kitt-E. It doesn't currently have a bolt in it but this was the Clare "Capoeira" Benavides tribute EMag. It consisted of parts from Clare's very first EMag. The Frygurl and I worked on it. It features custom Clare Grips and Clare engravings into the Battery Pack. It's a polished silver finish. (I still own it)
    - And once again this XMag XT00207. This was a somewhat early XMag that I got from Rob at Pev's. I believe I paid $1595.00 for it brand new. This XMag played in multiple tournaments,scenarios games, and 3 or 4 World Cups in my hands. I would go and help JonAGD at the AGD booth work on Markers until someone competing showed up needing a player due to injury. Sometimes I'd be the only Automag on the field. I could pull 18-19 balls per second with it by walking the trigger so I played back a lot. II was a Professional in the NPPL and PSP because of the subing. It played in Shatnerball 1 and 2. In Shatnerball 2 I was called aside to be one of Clare's personal escorts. During one of the battles I was shooting a lane with it just hosing paint. A kid stepped into a full 2-3 seconds of the paint I was laying down. The ref saw it and stuck his clip board up to stop the remains second or so of paint it was too late the kid got knocked off his feet. The ref yelled at the kid, then came over to me to check if I was shooting hot (I wasn't). I asked him what the hell the kid was thinking. He saw me shooting the lane and stepped into it. The marker is that fast. During a 10 man match at a tourney My entire team got shot out within seconds of the break. I shot every one on the other team out and bunkered the last guy. I got the flag and walked it down to hang it making sure I passed the rest of the team and their Shockers all the while calling them "lazy F**ks."

    Here are a couple of pictures. I have cleaned it up, charged it, and put my original grips, barrel, and battery pack back on. I think I'm going to do a display of all of my markers including the ones listed above as well as my Angel A1 Fly, Dark Angel IR3, Angel C&C, 05 Angel Speed, Dark Timmy, and DM4. It'll get used on the field again as well.

    oh man, thanks for sharing it's great history. Wouldn't guess it saw so much action by the clean overall condition that it's in, at least you can be confident that the people who owned it took care of it. With all that, this beast travelled across the country multiple times over the years, just to end up back in your hands, that's pretty special. Most people don't get that lucky. I would definitely give it it's own special spot on the wall. Thanks again for sharing all that!

    I was looking more for the search of the gun and being reunited, but the history lesson is good, all the same.

    Oh that part was easy. Sent a PM to AGDRetro, he told me who he sold it to, I sent that guy an email, we agreed on a price I sent him the money and he sent the XMag. Took a week (7 days).

    Hey! Just checking in, I was the person who bought the prototype emags valves from you many years ago. I was able to restore both and even retrieved some of the extra parts for it. I put up some build threads, but all the 3rd party hosting sites killed the pictures.

    I was able to find the original parts in KayleAGD's possession in Living Legends one year. I was talking to him about them and he goes into his pile of parts and pulls out some matching pieces. It was incredible.

    A few years later I set-up a display for TK in Living Legends and Tom called Carl Bonta to check out some of his own guns.

    They are in a good place and the wife likes the blue one. If I remember, Carl's wife used that one as well.

    That reminds me, I need to see if I can get some Powerhouse Regs from him :-)

    Double post: Wanted to include some pictures of the gun as well for future reference. Btw, I lived in Northern VA and went to Pev's alot. That first batch had me drooling over Xmags for a very long time
