I can't remember the last 2 digits on mine, but it is CF088** . It was laser engraved as 68 Automag. I purchased it new in 1993 and I always liked having something a bit different (old school), so I am never selling this valve. Its part of my paintball history.Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

how old?
my first mag was bought used back in 1996. I never thought about the difference between the classic and the 68 automag. My number which is hard to read from years of actual use is CF 02597. i guess that makes it kinda old? i still use is as much as my x-valve mag too.

Is the trigger on this my automag a responsive trigger I have a tipmann custom 98 with one on it and it looks the same alomost. the metal bolt behind the trigger does slide back about a 1/8 of an inch.

Yikes, i guess you don't know much about mags, that's what trips the sear releasing the bolt and it also cuts off the air to the dump chamber. If you had an X-Valve or some other kind of RT valve, then yes it would.Originally posted by FoxHoundSW Florida.

Anyway, welcome to the boards, and i love your name (unless it isn't a reference to the franchise that i love) and i also have that same barrel condom as you.
Wait, no, nevermind, mine has a bit more canvas on the front for strength, but either way i got it for free from a friend so i can't complain.Il n'y a point de sots si incommodes que ceux qui ont de l'esprit.

That's what i figured, it seems like that and rally racing games are all i ever want to play anymore. I tried playing the original metal gear on nintendo but couldn't figure it outOriginally posted by FoxHoundthanks for the info, no i dont know anything about automags unfortunately. But my name is in reference to Metal Gear Solid. Been playing that game since It was out on Gameboy color and PS1 hehe

Anyway, i hope that that diagram can help you figure out how mags work a little better, i think that exact animation is how i learned at first.Il n'y a point de sots si incommodes que ceux qui ont de l'esprit.
