take the allen wrench on the rear side and push the Pin out with it. Actually the Push pins are easier to put in and out than on my E-gripped X-7.

Here are some pictures of the Phemon's cyclone feed.

As you can see below, the paddles have been changed. I haven't had any chops  yet.

The rest of the cyclone doesn't seem to have changed. Still the clear plastic style ratchet. The cylinder is vented, but with less holes than the stock X7.

well the Phenom can run at a lower pressure than the rest of the guns right? Maybe there's less venting to accomodate those that want to hook up a regulator.

The Phenom runs perfectly on my Low Pressure tank. It will shoot until the gauge
is at 0 which I'm sure is 100 to 200. The tank gauges are horribly inaccurate.
 
Using a regulator wouldn't really do anything, it has a regulator in the marker.
 
I hope to do another shots per tank test tomorrow on video. It's a waste of two bags of paint,
but may be proof to some of the efficiency critics out there.

If you mean "mags" as in mil-sim, every one that fits the basic X7 should fit the Phenom.

I just got mine Yesterday! S# 1040.
The only thing they screwed up on it is the mag well. It should be closer to the trigger. The fact that there is a gap between the trigger guard and the mag well makes it look a little...weak.
Does anyone know when they are releasing the different mags?
