I was taking out the reactor on/off valve and replacing it with my stock on/off and I think I might have put my stock valve in incorrectly and now it's stuck. Any help on how to get it back out will be appreciated.

put it in a pillow or blanket, with the on/off facing the blanket, (with valve out of gun and bolt off of valve) and then hook the air up to the valve SLOWLY until the on/off pops out,

Thanks, I got it back out using that method. Now that I put the entire valve assembly back into the gun, it leaks down the barrel. Do you know what I could have done wrong?

Did you take apart the powertube tip and spacer assy? Powertube oring in?

I don't know what those are...:(, let alone where to find them.

I checked for the powertube o-rings and one was actually missing so I put in a new one. I gassed up the gun and had a massive leak from the vert. asa. Then I pulled the trigger once and the leak switched from the asa to down the barrel again. I don't know what to do. Maybe I can send it in to AGD?

well the leak from your asa is caused by a broken or cut o-ring on the tank, so replace that

and pull the trigger and hold it, do you still hear the leak while oyu hold the trigger?

That's just the thing, I replaced the O-ring. If there is a leak from the ASA that's the first thing I'd do. The leak was still coming from there so I pulled the trigger and the leak weakened from the asa and started down the barrel again.

I guess the moral of this story is... If it aint broke, don't fix it.

I have no clue... This happened with my stock valve today, it went whack. Bad day for stock valves?
