What valve should I use and why? Other then the x being lighter in weight.

All X-valves have lvl X, old E-mag valve maybe, maybe not. But as long as the E-mag valve has a lvl X kit they are basically the same other than weight. If you ever wanted to put a ULE trigger on/off on I think it would have to be an X-valve, but I could be wrong on that one not sure if the old E-valve was drilled for them or not. Since the old valve has more stainless steel on it you may have better durability with an e-mag valve. :cool:

i think you do, seems like part of the on/off assembly is slightly different from the other valves working on the RT principle. the Emag i bought had an X valve already installed courtesy of the previous owner... its on/off assembly is identical to the stock one that is in my standard Emag vavle. both of those on/offs are different from all the ones in my other X valves and RT valves.

Only thing that "needs" to be switched is the on/off pin. Emag on/off pins are .712 all the rest of the pins (X-Valve, RT, Retro and RT Pro) are .750 (depending).

So if you decide to install a X-Valve on your E-Mag, you can keep the original on/off, just swap out the pin

Sorry to hijack this thread, but since we are on the topic of emags. What type of rails will fit emag lowers?

Any that uses a RT sear pin. Not too sure on the classic RT, at least I've never seen lowers on a set before :rolleyes: but I'm willing to bet it does.

I'm sure someone will verify that one.
