Thanks Tom!

I'm scared to ask.....Pull off the HALO?


Day-there was a question (I thought) as to level 10 being pre-installed and ready to go. It appears to be but I have'nt gassed it up yet.

Are you thinking about getting the valve annodized load?

Maybe later, when I find someone to anno my warp breech and a few other parts and can match the pewter.

technically, its a very light pewter and then pollished, if you look in the sfl pěc thread, which will be at the top in a few as i add these pictures, you will see its true color.

So load it appears that the LX came pre istalled? And does it come with all the extra stuff? I hope it comes pre installed, that way I dont have to istall it :D

It comes pre-installed but may still need to be tweaked. I don't know yet. It has all the springs, shims and carriers as well as a new sear.

didn't the SFL's need a special size Level 10 bolt? will this one work with it?

Load SM5
01-02-2003, 03:56 PM
Yes, I'm using the one from my original valve. The one it comes with will work but may cause a little blowback. Probably not an issue with a HALO or a Warp.

are you using the lvl 10 bolt for the sfl, or the one it came with? tom adressed this before, and it can cause choppage as well, not fun right!



edit, i love the title!

Why yes I have, It's the lowest rise SFL owners can get until the modules come out.

Yes, Frymarker made my grips.

Evo 2s are actually only about 6oz lighter than Halo Bs....

Evos with Batteries are about 18ish
Halo Bs with batteries are in the range of 22-24.

So ya.. i guess -6oz would be considered lighter......
bah....

Load.. you better tell us how the Xvalve be working once u play with it.... considerable diff. in weight and handling ?? lol

GOOOOO -3oz

not for me... Sticking with the HaloB

Darn you Load now I have to go and get a X-valve for mine so they can stay twins.:p :D

Oh hey when you got your SFL lvl10 bolt did it fit right in or did you have to mess with it to fit. And did you have to adjust any of your shims or carries wiht it?

Load SM5
01-02-2003, 09:05 PM
I just transfered the shims and carrier from my old valve to the new one. Everything fit right in. I gassed it up about an hour ago and it worked like a champ.

Hopefully the smilie means you are kidding. I will give you they are lighter, but faster, come now it must be a joke.

I agree with Pito189, eVLutions are not quite as fast HALO B. Not to mention the fact that they do look like a bowling ball (or the egg shaped package pantyhose came in!)


P.S.- my answer is: Yes, it is a PIMP mobile you drive Pito189!

sad to say this... but Evos will eventually be almost able to keep up with Halo B's......

There is a new board in the testing mode right now... soon to be out on the market... makes Evo 2s go up to 22bps....

Thas pretty darn close to Halo B's.... and almost half the price i believe......

in any case... im sticking with the Halo B....

i have 1 comin in soon, and just wondering how finely tuned the bolt is, but you said you transfered all the old stuff from your old bolt, but do you know how the originally installed 1 worked? and is that all it included, was just spare lvl 10 parts and a sear?

Evo's are nowhere near as fast as the Halo B in actual use. Drop tests are not a good indicator for these loaders.

The Evolution over performs on the drop test and the Halo under performs on it as compared to actual use on a marker.

And considering how they work, I'll believe that new board can make the evolution feed faster when I see it :D It may allow it to do 22bps in a drop test... but as I said that means very little to how it works on the gun.

Gun's looking good Load!

I the one That came pre-installed seemed to work ok. It cycled but in my opinion the carrier that was installed was a little tight(1 carrier). It also had just 1 shim installed.

All that came with the kit was a level 10 kit and bolt, foamies, and sear.

Well just got to test drive it for about 200 shots. It ran great and consistant. I now use the longer spring and 3 shims and it smacks balls like a feather. Tomorrow I'll actually get to play with it and see.

U paid the full $300+ for your Xvalve... or do we get the same Go Retro type thing for trading in our Emag Valves ?
(minus of course our Special LvL 10 bolts...)

I would assume so Psycho. Mine was a special deal with a few other factors involved.
