Normally I am on MCB, but I recently picked up a reactor from sk8ermog and learned a bit from him as well. A co-worker just gave me his old mag to check over for him and rebuild it. He told me it had some special "wizard valve" in it but he didn't know any more about it. I know some guys mentioned them before here but there are missing pics in the thread. So here are pics of what I was told was a wizard valve.

This is in a classic L7 valve. It makes the pull noticeably lighter. But it is pretty easy to short stroke.Comment

Looks like the top is from a centerflag hyperframe on/off. Any on/off with a small pin head like that will easily short stroke in a classic. Maybe you should just buy a hyperframe from me

i seem to recall the centerflag on/off top looking more like the rt on/off top. i'll have to take a look at it the next time i have it apart (if i can even get it apart).Comment

Lol. I don't think I need a fast mag. Unless it happens to be in crazy black splash. That valve is brass by the way. The rest on the on/off assembly is stock.Comment

You're right, it was the "Thunder" bolt that was partly titanium. Wizard valve is brass, though colored to black when not worn. This is mine from -96 when Venom was sponsoring our team.Attached FilesComment

regular on/off bottom; some modified on/off top. i have one like that...it just looks like an old on/off top that's had the "cross" enlarged.Comment

Does anyone know how many shims are supposed to be in the stock ULT?Comment
-
It depends on the tolerance of the parts you have installed. Usually 3 is good place to start. If it works good, leave it at that. If you want to tweak your setup, add shims one at a time until you get bolt stick or an over reactive trigger. Then remove the last shim.Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.Comment

some on/offs i've come across so far:
from left to right: older classic on/off top (side and bottom views). newer classic on/off top. stainless check-it on/off top. brass smart parts on/off top...the cross cut was deepened, and wraps all the way around the on/off top. stainless hsi reactor on/off. next is a galactic-z on/off with automag pin (i also have the rt pin). finally, an rt on/off.Comment
