    Valve RT,E-mag or X witch one to get

    I am going to get a retro valve of some sort really quick and i am wanting to know the exact diferance between these and if there are more than those valves that are retro. Im thinking of geting the X just to say i have it but if the others are just as good then i dont have to have it. The real reason im asking this is because of a guy on eBay that was selling the E-mag valve and said that it was BETTER than the X. Stronger more durable and went retro just as easy as the X. I understand that the X is lighter and all that i dont really care about that though. Also do you need a I-frame or hyper frame to get the retro to go? If i get one will the retro still work?

    #1: E-Mag valves are NOT for use with the classic mags because it has the wrong size on/off pin and the wrong o-rings for use in a regular mag

    #2: ReTro is the stainless steel valve made for use on all regular mags as a drop-in upgrade

    #3: x-valve is just agd's new version of the retro which is made in aluminum and it comes with level 10 bolt kit

    #4: DO NOT use a hyperframe with any of these RT valves, it is notorious for chewing up the bolt and double firing quite often

    #5: an intelliframe is NOT necessary to make the retro/x valves work, it is just an upgrade aftermarket frame which simply helps you fire a bit faster because it is a double trigger, but if you care to, the stock frame or benchmark/DYE frame should work fine



    my best suggestion for you is to get a used ReTro valve from the AO sales forum for around $200-250, and then pick up a lvl 10 bolt kit from AGD, set it up properly, and just keep your stock trigger frame unless you decide you want to step up to an intelliframe, but whatever you do, DO NOT use a hyperframe with retro/x/emag, and do not use emag valve with any mag except for the emag
