Just doing a poll, because everywhere I turn everyone on AO has either the RT or X valve in their marker. Am I one of the last few that still like the classics?

I bought an Emag. Decided that I was tired of putting money into my 'mag. Now, I want to trade in the 'mag valve for an xvalve and do a little switcheroo!!!

It's a dangerous, vicious cycle. Almost like AR15 building. You can't have JUST one!

I have both =\

Instead of doing the trade-in when I got my X-Valve, I kept my classic valve. So what Im doing now is putting a new sorta custom mag together with the ULE body, intelliframe, X-Valve, Level 10 bolt, and a new body rail (hopefully an Omega). Then I'm going to put my old body, classic valve, stock trigger and stock rail together. I'll play with my shiney ULE mag and use my stock minimag as a backup or for my friends to use.

My minimag still has it's original valve. I was planning on getting an X-valve but I figured I could save that 225 dollars plus the money I might get from selling my mini to get an E-mag or other good electro.

I can't afford to feed anything faster than my mini right now anyway

I would call that: spending ALL your resources on paintball, and failing 2nd-12th grade English, especially the part about how punctuation is your friend... :p

Well I don't have a mag now, so that's what I voted for... but by the end of this summer I'll have an e-mag, so... yeah.

my brother has a classic mag and i dont think he is going to put an x valve into it, hes to cheap. he wont even buy a nitro tank to put on it. currently hes running remote co2 and wont even buy an expansion chamber or revvy.

i didnt vote because i had a smart valve and upgraded to an automag...

i like my automag valve. it was made in 1991 so when the others complain that my mag is the reason im beating them i can brag that theirs are better:)

..."have a stock classic/mini valve, PLAN on getting an X"

if that were an option, i'd be clicking that. as it's not, i can't vote.

cheers!

Had a mismatched mini/rental valve...traded it for the X...it's just so much easier to shoot longer strings than the classic.

i still have my minimag valve in the e-mag i built. i already had the LX working beautiffuly(sp),and even with the classic i am pulling 16, so why get an X. i cant shoot any faster unless i upgrade my software, and then i need a no-rise or ule with a halo, and that also equals more money in paint. for now, i will be keeping the classic valve, but soon, all the money goes out the window.

man, this money thing never ends.

I baught a micromag from some dumb kid that took a dremel to the body... but the valve was good.... so while the body was being remilled, i ordered an xvalve... should be here today. so my excuse for the spending was that i couldnt shot my mag right now, so i might as well overhaul her.

I've upgraded so much(including X-valve)that I rebuilt my classic with the parts i took off and turned it into a pumpmag. And I still can't vote in polls! :(
