Well I have a couple questions. I have this old style RT and saw the trade in program where you get the ULE body and the x-valve. Well my RT doesn't work right now, but its nothing more than o-rings that need replacing. Will they still do this? or do I have to spend 20 bucks on a repair kit before I can send it in? which seems kinda silly to me.

also, how light would a ule body, and x-valve setup be? under 2 pounds? thanks for the help.

They will most likely be melting your body & valve down. They don't care if the valve works or not.

As for weight, a full ULE emag actually weighs less than an Xmag, which is 2.7 pounds. A mechanical will be significantly under that.

what is the difference between an x-mag and an xvalved mag? or are they the same thing? so your saying a mech mag would be lighter than the e-mag (i assume u have an e-mag?)

I have this old style RT and saw the trade in program where you get the ULE body and the x-valve. - I don't think you get a body with it... you're RT valve + $225.00 = NIB X-valve.

than the Xmag is the friggen orchard.

Xmags are a entirely new markers (ULE'd, ACE, electro), while the x-valved is just a valve upgrade.

As for weight, it depends on the parts you have installed. An all ULE'd Emag (rail, body, valve, frame) can weigh less than a stock mag (rail, Stainless steel body, twistlock barrel).

theres a trade in program where you send in 325 and get a ule body to.

well man that xmag looks....awesome. i want one :'( how much are they.

Im really interested in how easy you can sweetspot x-valve's and how fast they can go.

x-mags unfortunatly went out of production =( you can however find some people that are selling them off but they usually go for $1000 -1500 depending on ANO condition and what else they come with.

Find any Emag video. They're the same gun, just a different body. (Minus the anti-chop eye)

anywho, back on topic. Im wondering how easy it is to sweetspot those things. is that legal in tournies?? I would imagine it is but....who knows. if they dm4s are legal, i can't see how these aren't.

No, sweetspotting is not legal in tourneys. As for the X-valve, it's not that hard to sweetspot, but you need an adjustable tank, so you can turn up the input pressure.

BOBS DONT DO IT trust me your better off selling the rt and then buying a ule custom from one of the dealers. unles the rt doesnt work and is in the WORST SHAPE ever however i did do the trade in...kinda wish i hadnt. i shouldve just kept the rt that thing was a BEAST. but if you do do itt hey give u basicaly a completely new gun...u keep the foregrip and grip
the replace the rail body and valve.
