I was wondering if anybody here knows if ReTro valves are legal in tournaments. I ask this because on a normal mag Ive heard that you have to have a velocity lock to play in tourneys, and there isnt a place for one on a Retro valve. Anybody know?

yes they are tourny legal unless the marker is reactive.

they dont need a tourny lock(however, special steps need to be taken when chrono'ing a Retro valve)

Some field owners for local tournies don't like the Retro valve too much and won't allow it but they are usually extreme cases and/or misinformed field owners.

Misinformed? Nah, they are just jealous that they dont have one!

how to chrony a RT/ReTro/Emag/RTPro (http://www.airgun.com/rtchrono.shtml)

only thing i'm not sure if it has in it is that for the Emag the marker needs to be in the M mode and the eletronics turned off

other then that these are all the same
