rt air ports

[junk7488]

I have the old kind of automag rt which has six holes in the back to connect the air to. The back two ports on the left side don't connect to the valve or any of the other ports. I was wondering if this is a defect or if its supposed to be this way and why.

I have no metal drilled out for the last two holes on the back of my rail either... It's supposed to be like that. AGD milled all of the classic RT's with only the two front holes, on either side, connected with an air path. The back two are just for cosmetic reasons I would think. As for the reason... I'm guessing that you wouldn't be able to run many different devices effectively from one small air inlet and still be able to get the maximum performance out of the gun.

you could put a mini gauge to see your input pressure to the gun

but the two holes that are not connected to the others are connected to each other

Aren't the two set screws in the back of the rail somehow involved with the air flow toward the rear ports?

I believe that Capo is right. I don't own an oldschool RT but Blazestorm does and he has a mini guage connected to one of those ports.

what do the tiny screws int he back of the body rail do?
