1) What is the difference between the AIR and RT valves that causes the RT valve to have so much more kick back?

2) How does more pressure effect the reactivity of the valve. The reactive part comes from a part of the valve past the reg(at least on air valves, I don't know about RT's) so I don't see how it could change the reactivity UNLESS it has to do with how fast the new air is moving through the reg.

3) Does anybody have a animation of an X valve that shows the differences between it and a Classic valve.

4) Would using a ULT on my classic possibly be the reason that it is taking a second pull to reset the trigger?

5) Will I ever find true love?

6) How do you get the sear assy out of the rail/trigger. When I try to take it all apart I get the body off the rail and then the rail is stuck to the grip by the sear. This is on the stock MM rail and the Carbon fiber trigger. I jiggled it all ways I could and no luck.

1) The Air valve is not a Reactive Trigger where a RT is.
RT-repositions your trigger/finger into ready to fire position. where an Air valve Ypou have to move your finger forward your self. hench RT-Faster ROF. The kick back is the same for both markers because the bolt, if the same bolt, weight the same.
2)the more input pressure from the tank the more reactivity at the trigger. the trick is to sweet spot the trigger for optimium bounce factor. if in a tourney you want to turn your input pressure down so you dont have bounce or your marker will be disqualified.
3) nope.
4) check your input pressure. plus the ult is not recommended for the air valve.
5) If you hang around paintball fields all weekend probably not. The male to female ratio is not promising.
6) if you have both screws out the whole thing should fall apart including the sear and axel.

This clip is the original RT with the air going thru field strip screw banjo bolt.

Regarding question #2- Everything you want to know about RT reactivity, how it works, what affects it and to what level it can be used.

Army explained it to me. I didn't know that the on/off in an RT style valve was fed full pressure air. Thanks for the input everybody.
