    Bad Valve? Really?

    I have a Classic Mag on the way to me that I got for super cheap because it has a "bad valve". Is that even possible?

    Are there bad AGD valves? Or is it just bad airsmithing?

    Thanks in advance.

    that really depends on a plethora of things.

    someone could have removed, modified, internals in "hopes" of improving performance. someone could have also tried to drill another port to run a gauge or possibly have it hidden in the rail.

    basically, there are a lot of things that it could be, but without pics, its hard to say, just from a description of a "bad valve".

      The person said they had lots of bad valves, so I won't really know until I get it in my hands. It's not something I've ever heard in regards to an AGD product.

          Replace all O-rings and make sure you are using a proper AGD power tube spacer and I'll bet it shoots just fine...
