    Luke used to offer a fix for them, he's long since discontinued that service

      some have said that you dont have velocity issues with an xvalve only with classic valve. If I remember correctly when people say velocity issues was that they could not get above 280-300. Most fields around here cap velocity at 275-290 to have that little buffer and for insurance. so maybe not that big of an issue.
      one of these days i have to pull my two brand new ones and try them out to see what results i get.

        I didn't have any with the one I had but usually with the velocity issues it was pretty much all valves.

        Luke knows what to do to fix it but the secret has been locked in the vault of the masters of the universe, and no one has the power.....

          I have no interest in being part of this conversation. But it's not brain surgery or unattainable information, if you want to know what the problems are with these bodies just reverse engineer it and then compare that to AGD specs. Or try to contact Forrest with PTP maybe he'll help, because its not my problem. That's the only answer you'll ever get out of me on the subject no matter how many times you mention it.

            Why is that? If you are not going to fix them then why dont you just spill the beans on how to do it. I would be interested myself...

              This is not a Lc product so you should contact ProTeam Products, Forrest is still around.

              Or you can pick up a Lc Micromag, I'll be glad to answer any questions you have on the Deflator.
              The Deflator design was the MM2K9 that I wanted.

                Concerning the PTP MM2K9 bodies, I'm still guessing one of two things:
                1. Bolt spring is over-compressed when installing valve. This pre-over-compression prevents higher velocities. Similar to installing red or gray spring on Level 10 without turning in the velocity adjuster to compensate.
                2. Bolt releases air too far back in stroke. Too much air is lost up feed tube or elsewhere to propel the ball at higher velocities.

                Or perhaps both. They may be connected. But I only have second-hand info to go on. I've never owned one. I just don't like the looks enough to veer from AGD products, which work (or have a large support network to get them to work when they seldom don't).

                  OK, I'll try again 3? 5? years later. What dimensions differ on the Deflator vs. the MM2K9 that allow the Deflator to reach higher velocities than the MM2K9?

                    The ones that matter, wouldn't you think? (lol)

                          It's unfortunate for you that you ever fixed one of these.

                          Because your name will be synonymous with the 2K9 micromag always like it or not.

                            Is that bad?

                              Not to me but you seem a bit put out every time this subject (and you in tandem with it) are mentioned.

                              It's all good.
