    sigelei 24 has a magnetic side firing button, or at least I was told it was magnetic where I bought it. I got it for about $50 there, but saw it online for $28. It was out of stock everywhere online.

    The button section is sealed so you can't get in there to see if there are magnets, but I'm sure there are. Mine is working just fine after 2 months or so.

    Vaportek has them for 30 bucks now:

    I've been happy with mine, it's nice looking mech, and you can sit it down and it just stands there without you having to spin a locking ring down every time. Something I didn't like about the Magneto.

    Nope. The #24 switch isn't magnetic, it's got a spring. I wish it did but for $30 it's not a bad mech

    P.S. Stay away from the Sigelei #20, It's a hot mess, LITERALLY!

    I saw a post around here somewhere where they took one apart. I know I could get mine apart but I can't be sure I could get it back together. :blink::confused::facepalm:
