    What kind of ON/OFF is this?

    I was digging around the shop and found a bag full of these.
    What is it? Classic on/off?
    EDIT: I just noticed the one laying down up front looks defferent than some of them too.

        one looks like a (the one standing up) a classic valve, the other (laying down) looks like a 68 Automag. But I'm pretty sure I'm wrong so don't quote me.

          I bought a 68Automag new around 1995 that had an on/off like the one laying down. I sent it in a couple of years later for a free upgrade (they used to have lifetime upgrades back then) and it came back with the stand up on/off.

              i have both kinds in the pics. The one with the holes are for the classic and the ones with the X slots are for the old 68mags. The holes i believe are an upgrade for the 68mag on/off. Heck i still have a power tube spring LOL

                They're all standard am/mm on/offs, just different vintages.

                  So...what can we do with them? There are a bunch laying around in general. I have at least two on hand.

                  My daughter doesn't do the industrial jewelry thing. Maybe Luke or someone else could make us something useful.

                      Luke could weld them into a statue of TK! Or maybe some lions...

                      Why do you guys have so many? I have two, one for each valve I own. I didn't think I needed more than that...

                        Some people donate them to you when you help them with their new on/off because they don't do the pack-rat thing.

                        I would like to know how you get a baggy full though

                          Yeah... UM....ebay.

                          See, I saw it listed as bag of automag goodies, and I saw the sidecar sqeegee in the pic, Paid 8 bucks shipped and a crate full of AGD showed up at my house.

                            Must have been from that rare, vintage, one of a kind, custom AGD collection.
