    ya but it isn't my tank. Borrowing it long term from a buddy when he upgraded to a Ninja SL when those came out. Going to get a 68/45 SL with the Pro reg and a SHP reg eventually. Would regular mags still want SHP? Such as an X-Valve? Don't overly care if I have crazy RT all the time. A nice mech setup will do me fine or I might new a Pnuemag.

      My wife uses a 850psi output crossfire tank on her RTPro with level X without a problem. (RTP, retro, emag, x valve all work the exact same). It doesn't have the rt effect my classic rt valve has. But its nothing to shake a stick at. My classic rt on my gun I feed with 850psi from a ninja pro V2 reg. It has more rt than her mag. But it also has a shorter on off pin.

      If you have shoot down with a 850psi reg then my guess is its because the reg has poor flow capability. Not so much because of the psi.

Then you have a hundred or two rounds before empty that you can try to defend yourself with or get a replacement when you have a nice spot (which is why you were going through the paint anyway).
        no, it just flat wont fire

          That's odd. My classic rt will fire down to about 600psi. But once its below set pressure its reactivity and distance start going down. So I know to ration shots from there on out. When I had a 1k input it was real nice. Had buffer room. Now with less than 900 input my buffer is a lot smaller.

            I use it on everything though from my Marq Rapper, cockers, Tippmanns (with and without RT), and various pumps no issues ever.

              Curious what I would need to take this back to stock. I know I'm not far from it. What else would I need besides an RT sight rail? What type of ASA did these come stock with? And I'm torn, I like the chunky AGD grips it has but really don't like composite frames. Is there an aluminum version that would take these grips or would switching to a different single trigger frame be a good idea?

                it would need the dust black aluminum sight rail, and the rt foregrip. they did not come with asas; it had a beefy cast 90-degree elbow and a male quick-disconnect fitting in the foregrip. it's not very practical though, so i just use the agd bottom bottle adapter. to connect it to the foregrip you can use two elbows and a 7" stainless hose, or two elbows, a quick-disconnect and a 5.5" stainless hose.

                the composite frames are very strong, and are the lightest frames agd has. agd lifted a small car with one of those frames to demonstrate their strength lol.

                  So the RT Classic game with the RT grip not a bike grip?

                    Here is my personal RT. The Y was not stock. Or the barrel. But the hardliners/for grip/sight rail/Ect is OEM from its original purchase.

                    Pretty sure the only thing I've ever done to this marker is change grip frames, barrels, and air system. It even still has a level 7 bolt and its original rt on off.

                      Ok cool. I like the look of the RT foregrip better anyway.

                            Finally had a chance to take it out. Holy cow this thing is fun! Need to get a new elbow though, one seller provided is cracking.

                              PTP makes a very nice elbow that is pretty indestructible. I think its Allen PB or maybe Bacci that has one as well. The cheap clear plastic ones put bluntly suck.

                                i'll agree with that; i use pro-feed elbows exclusively. but, they can't really fit loaders with fat necks (halo, rotor, vmax). i do have a halo that barely fits, but the neck was sanded down quite a bit.

                                app has one, but you have to use hose clamps on it, which looks ugly in my opinion.
