that's good news, thank you.
strange that they do not advertise that.
so far you are the first (of the vendors) that knew about it.

Interesting...
Mine is a HP and on August ninth I asked about them and they replied they have them on stock. I remember not seeing them on their website though. I suppose they were a new batch. I definitely have the old magazines, lucky Me! So at least the supposedly first HP rifles are / were delivered with old magazines.

sorry for you.
my order of a HP is in the shipping process, when i asked the vendor about the mags, the response was that it fits about 10.5mm projectiles, that was a few days ago. can only hope that i will get the new mags with it.

Sounds like the old version to Me but one can hope!
Magazines are definitely not on the cheap side and I'm curious to hear the price of these new ones.
I believe Mr. King from AAO does sell anything separate if You ask him. He's a nice guy and replies promptly. No BS.

Yes.. I said the last ones comes with new magazine..
It's not very hard to make a magazine holding larger projectiles
I have a 3d file just for the cover (and i can send it to any interested) or if you have lathe you can make the cover holding larger slugs easy.Upvote 0
AGN does not advertise their guns.. They let the guns speak for themselves
and this is the best advertisement...Just the news from AGN are too slow

Well let Me advertise for them... I admit AGT has a lot going on for them. Vulcan 3 is built like a tank.
Now the sad part: Pistol grip is made for children.
You're forced to buy a real rifle case to carry yours around scoped. An identical to FX costs 100 euros. Put that on top of the rifle price!
There's nothing reasonable to actually attach bipod on to. Some six inches of picatinny rail placed on the middle of the rifle. I mean come on! I had to make my own and while I admit it's far from factory quality, it's still a lot more than what most people have the chance to make in their home.
The barrel of choice is said to be super accurate and I really hope it to be true. What I don't see is why have they gone with oversize barrel when right size slugs are unobtainium? AVS has done some testing but everyone realizes how expensive it would be to have them imported to Scandinavia. Then there are Altaros semi boat tail and they won't take velocity.
There's an opinion for You!

They are good guns.
Here are a few of my frustrations with my Vulcan 3 .30 700mm non-HP
Here are a few of my frustrations with my Vulcan 3 .30 700mm non-HP
- Just know that AGT likes to use non standard threads for their tanks and moderator threads.
- They also like to use non standard bit patterns on some of the internal bolt heads.
- They are not easily adjustable and will require degassing, tank removal and pulling the plenum to adjust the regulator, and unless you have a reg tester, you are just making a wild guess as to how much you changed the reg.
- The magazines do max out around 10.5 mm or .413 inch. which is super annoying as this won't even accommodate light weight FX Hybrids in .30 cal. Also the gun seems to prefer heavier slugs which means single loading unless you alter the mags or buy new mags. I can usually get up to mid 60 grain slugs to feed in the mags just for reference.
- No Foster fitting for refilling.
- The pressure gauge could have been a little larger and easier to read.

I'm not sure about factory depinger. I decided to replace it with the AAO version, which is a straight through design. Even if the factory version may be superior in supressing noise, I wouldn't want air having to change direction twice. No one likes that.
The factory depinger is closed on the narrow end (facing regulator and bottle). Sure it would have been sweet to measure speeds. Maybe someone will chime in.

Well now I can say the aftermarket depinger is way louder!
It's very noticeable. I will most likely go back as soon as I have a speed problem fixed (occurred before depinger).
All stock HP gave 130FPE so not bad from a depinger supposedly blocking air flow. I'll take it

Anyone have knowledge of Vulcan 3 pressure gauge thread size? Would it be the usual 1/8 bsp?

Where are we gonna be able to get the new mags just got a new vulcan 3 hp 30 from Talon tunes and it still had the old magazines.

Sorry... My fault... At the moment only .22 and .25 magzines are with the new design.. .30 will come later

it would make so much more sense to have mags that fit longer projectiles in the .30 HP version, though. =(

They aren’t hybrids, it’s a .25 and the top of the page says 44gr, maybe some AVS action? They love AVS .253

Maybe they will get the new 30 cal mags out soon. A little report on the gun got the vulcan 3 hp 30 cal from Talon tunes gun was tuned to 980 fps with 62.5 Avs slugs was surprized by how good it shot JSB hades pellets 9 shot mag at 50 yds was nickel size and 61 gr AVS was less than a dime. My chrono was messing up but the Jsb hades pellets where doing 1098 fps

Put a 28mm wika gauge on it and while it was degassed i turned the reg up 1/2 turn velocity was 1052 avg over a magazine speed started dropping around 215 bar. Refilled the gun to 300 bar and velocity was only 900 fps until i shot down to around 270 bar then velocity jumped to 1050 fps so i may need to back down reg a little bit
