I was wondering what the maximum rate of fire of the classic/minimag valve was seeing as i was considering the x-valve.

Thanks

ive personally have seen a classic valve maintain 16 bps full auto with a centerflag hyperframe.

hope this helps :)

Classic valve can go 13bps full auto with a Boo-Yaah frame.

Lol wrong. Classic valves can do around 16-17bps w/o shootdown. Anything higher will result in drops in velocity. Perfect for pneumags imo.

The valve will theoretically fire as fast as you can pull the trigger. How fast they can fire without shootdown is another issue. Classic valves, if setup properly have been known to operate beyond 16bps without shootdown.

10-11 maybe 12 with regular doube trigger and trigger stops installed. But its only in bursts, its hard to sustain more than a few secs, but then again thats generally all you need.

Yes! Glad to hear they can reach 16bps. I'm making an E-frame for my classic.
