Ok, so i know that i can buy the lowers for the emag and if i tap out the field strip screw hole i can put it on my original RT. However, i ran into a dilemma. Would i need to tap out the valve to accept the 2 orings or could i just get a new on/pff pin that's shorter, or would i not have to do anything?

You wouldn't need to drill out the on-off hole. The original emags only had the single quad oring on the top of the on-off.

The Classic RT used a .765" pin. The retro valve uses a .750" pin. An original emag uses a .725" pin. All current emags use a .712" pin. I suspect that a .725" or a .750" on-off pin will work in your valve if used as an emag. Try one. If it works, use it.

Ok, awesome, well i guess i'll have to wait a while to do this, seeing as the rt emptied my funds.
