the RT has a smaller, but slightly faster valve, and a heavier body.

the RT valve will not fit in any other mag body, where the RT PRO uses the ReTro Valve and fits in all other bodies.

All the literature for the ReTro claims 22 bps w/o shootdown, but the RT has always claimed 26.

thats as far as I know, I'm sure someone out there will correct me.

The RT valve internals are the same. The RT Valve is slightly smaller because it fits into the body. The RT-Pro vavle fits exactly like the A.I.R. valve or the ReTro valve.

They function exactly the same as on the Rt and RT-Pro.

mitch I would suggest the RT Pro. The RT Pro valve is the same as the ReTro and EMag valve, just a different serial number on it. That gives you compatibility. You use can use normal air fittings. All that kind of fun stuff.

The RT used a gas through main rail, with a differnt field strip screw that is also gas through. The RT-Pro uses a normal tapped hole on the side of the valve (normal in the sense that the other valves are like that too). On the RT the gas through also has normal tapped holes. I just like that you can do everything the same on an RT-Pro as other AGD guns.

In all reality I think the ReTro valve in a normal mag is best. It's lighter. A lil more flexible, setup wise.
