colored valves... what?:confused:

[SpecialBlend2786]

are you talking about the ones pictured in that ULE thread?

[punkcmonkiez]

i think that theres a problem with the striength of the alluminium or so somthing

[afrankart]

I don't think it is an issue of the strength of the aluminum, because annoing it a color isn't going to affect the structural integrity more than annoing it black.

they do have a bunch of colored valves, yes the do match the ule bodies, however, they are waiting for laser engraving. Now, before you ask "can i get one without the laser engraving?" the answer is NO. AGD will NOT sell valves with out the engraving, cause the engraving is the serial #. No serial number... no service. I only know all this cause I already talked to Tom about this at the Mega Meet.

ok i found the reason.. they are waiting for laser ingraving.. i wonder whats takin so long

I have seen the colored valves in person
so they do exsist

.....But it's not like they can't do laser engraving right now. They were just trying to decide on a universal name to fit the "X" in every gun with an x valve, but I thought somewhere someone said that a design was very close? Maybe? I dunno? In a way, I know they exist too :D No you cannot send it to an annodizer because of the tight tolerances inside of the x, where the anno would add a thin coat...I'm pretty sure of that.

Could you just get a black one and send it to an annodizer?

Okay guys, just to let you know...(coming from a guy that bugs Tom every chance he can get:D) The valves are waiting to be engraved...
