I dont own a rt body personaly.

so i was wondering how do they work.
i see they cover more of the valve.
is this to direct the air from the rail into the valve?
if so how is this done.
descriptive pictures or very descriptive explination will help.

thankyou,

Classic RT valves are smaller in diameter than current RT/X/Classic valves.

Air is routed through the rail, and the rear frame screw is a banjo bolt (like the front of a cocker) that routes it to the valve.

I think it's a pretty neat set up, but it's also very finiky.

shoot.

i am in the process of designing a new rail for all valves excluding old rt valves.

this new rail i am making gets rid of outer hosing.

and has a pneumatic block attatched to make a supper light trigger pull.

this rail/p-mag combo will be one peice essentially and will be a dirrect drop in for 90 degree frames.

that is the plan so far.

i am getting the cadd drawings set up right now.

and maybe later i will trying to have it be a direct drop in for inteliframes also.

i am looking to get a census of people interesed in not having outer air hoses and also have a pneumatic trigger all set in one.

so this is a glimpse of what is to come.
i have to make a prototype once i get the drawings figured out and test the prototype.

if you think you would have interests let me know.
ill set pictures up when i get this more designed.

thankyou,

It'd be interesting to see, but I don't see alot of people jumping on it till there's at least a Prototype.

oh yeah for sure making myself a prototype first then releasing when i get the kinks out if there are any, which there are bound to be some.

im doin it right for sure.

it will **if all goes well** be able to drop right into a m90 frame for sure.
and possibly the chimera.

then later on ima research puting it into an inteliframe.

thankyou,

A one-piece bolt-on pneumag would be pretty popular I think. I'd consider buying it as long as the price was reasonable.

You should try to leave some room in the design to fit a solenoid and a board. Making it EP upgradeable would be a huge selling point even if you didn't sell it that way yourself.

Personally external air lines aren't a big deal for me. The idea of a bolt-on p-mag rail is appealing on its own, though.
