              I thought the same thing, although I did not comment on it.

                  [threadjack]I went back to the laundromat yesterday to do another load and the lady remembered me from ITLAP Day I could tell she did. I was half expecting her to talk to me like a pirate, but she didn't, which was a bit disappointing. She looked shocked when I spoke plain English [/threadjack]

                    That's great, yeah actually the coxswain that was in my boat for rowing practice started talking like a pirate, it was pretty funny.

                      yeah yeah yeah i know lol and now i know what ive been missing out on but at least now i get to enjoy the greatness of agd also i will post pics tomorrow for those interested in seeing my mini mag. and sense im here now and you all know im a mag newb would an rt sear and pin make the gun shoot like an rt? pretty much what im asking is what does changing the sear and pin do? and ive read that you cant put a ult kit in a mag with a classic or minimag valve, also read you can, but dosnt it just lighten the trigger pull? so wouldn't that be ok to do or would i not benefit from doing so?


                      thanks, JoE

                        Nope
                        pretty much what im asking is what does changing the sear and pin do?
                        It will not help you. If you have an RT rail, you need an RT pin; likewise, if you have a Classic Rail, you need a Classic pin. They are just different. They really do the same thing in the end. The RT one is threaded and the Classic is not, IIRC.
                        and ive read that you cant put a ult kit in a mag with a classic or minimag valve, also read you can, but dosnt it just lighten the trigger pull?
                        You can use the ULT in a classic valve. There is really no legitimate reason to do this IMHO. The only reason to do this on a classic valve is to overload it with shims and make your Mag have ridiculous bounce and "runaway gun" (although it has been brought to my attention that it can improve the functionality of the hyperframe). Essentially what the ULT was designed to do is remove or diminish the bounce effect from the RT type valves in addition to lightening the pull.
                        so wouldn't that be ok to do or would i not benefit from doing so?
                        If you want to have "runaway gun" then you can look into it further, but I do not see a point in putting a ULT into a Classic type valve. I think you'd be happier accessorizing in some other way.

                        thanks, JoE
                        Okie dokie... That should do it. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We are a great group here, well 99.99% of the time anyways

                        Good luck with the Mag and shoot it with pride. If you have not been bitten by the bug yet, you will. In case you have not been told, the Mag Bug has a strong positive correlation with empty wallets; it's sad, but true

                          If i'm not mistaken, every classic valve will accept the ULT. One of the reason is to be able to use the classic valve with a hyperframe.

                          About the AGD bug, I have 6 markers and another arriving this week. 5 of those are mags. That's without working, just imagine when i start working

                            You are right, and I hate you for it

                            It was my mistake. It will work in all Classic valves. There are some Retro and RT Pro valves that needed a mod. I'll go back and fix it.

                            As for my mag bug... I have my first mag, my personalized Z-gripped mag, and something extra special that is in the hands of RRFireBlade as we speak. I do not even want to know how much the final total will be for that puppy

                              The most amount I ever spent on a mag was $510, but I've spent far more than that if I figure in the cost of my c68 classic and Minimag.
