    any news on REACTOR on/offs?

    the local PB shop is carying reactor on/offs. guys around here ask me a lotta mag questions, and most of the time i can answer a litte. but ive never heard ANYTHING about em. are they like z's? or cyclones? i noticed the on/off top was flipped basically upside down, as far as the holes. what exactly does this do? thanks for the help

      They are great! Great for parting a fool from his money! Seriously, they are pretty much useless. They dont do anything that the stock on/off doesnt do. Spend your money on paint.

          now see, i dont want to be mean, but i cant stand replys like that. you say its a waste, and it doesnt do anything the stock on/off doesnt do. but that helps me ZERO. i want to know WHAT IT DOES DO. it has to do somthing, or they wouldne even make em. say, better airflow making a snappier trigger, or DAMAGE to the valve? you say its bad, have you ever tried one? or owned one? or are you saying its bad because you've heard everyone else say it?

              the reactor valve will not increase air flow or make the trigger lighter. it will not increase reharge rate either as the package says. it will perform less or equal to the stock valve but it wil not be better. in some cases it will actually hinder your mags performance. the stock valve is the best.

              many manufactures lie to boost sales. this is just yet another example of this.

                  ok, i don't study aftermarket on/offs so i may be off here.

                  doesn't the reactor on/off lighten your pull some? can't it also cause shootdown?

                      The Reactor On/Off uses the same on/off pin as in the stock valve, so it will have the same trigger pull. Also, you can't exactly make a decision based off what people say even when they own the product. Most people when they buy a part that is suppose to increase the performance of the gun believe it will do so and tell themselves that the gun works better, when it actually is no different than before.

                          Apparently it has been tested and aftermarket internals do not affect the Mag because the stock internals are the strongest and longest lasting. They are also the fast, lightest, best of all! The only internals that affect the trigger would be maybe the orings and a spacer kit.
