welp... i finally got my ReTro valve..... gassed up 1st with my old valve fired about 50x's.... switched over to the retro... gassed it up found i had to go in about 3 total turns to get it to cycle so it sounded like my old valve....

feel in luv right away and am still drooling over the trigger....

now i figured... i got a griffen(absoulte backup to my mag and sov2... also great for friends to get them hooked) and the trigger on that thing is "really heavy" as compared to my other 2... so i uped the input upto 900psi on my hps and went to town on my new toy....

the trigger never felt so crisp and snappy... i empty my tank, refilled of the scuba, and did it again.... i fired off a string of about 20, 4-5 times and not once did i hear the tall-tell sound of me shortstrokin the trigger.... needless to say i still cant sit properly :D

why i didn't do this soon is beyond me and i all ready kick myself in the arse a few times... but i'm over it now.... except for now i cant wait to go out and play again....

good deal on the retro, makes it a whole different gun.
After a while you dont even notice how fast it is. Three rounds bursts are hella wicked.

845 needs monetary donations email Will_120@hotmail.com :D for info

How does $1000 sound?
Sounds great, doesn't it?
I would give it to you if I had $1000 to spare, but unfortunately I don't. When I become a millionare, I'll let you know and give it to you then.

As for virus, have you ever thought of putting a trigger job on your griffen, my friend got a trigger job on his griffen from a guy at the local shop and the trigger is crisp and snappy. Like a mags, but not. It would be something to look into.
