    Old RT mainbodies....

    Will these bodies fit on newer rtpros? will they fit on any other mag?

        effectively you have to turn a square into a cirlce. check out the tech forum and the thread titled "main body differences". that should explain it.

          Bartleby, the old style RT bodies are not covered in that thread at all. The original RTs used a slightly different valve that fit into the body more, so the current valves will not fit.

            I'm not sure, but the guy I bought my mag off of modified his too ... I'll post a pic but I'm not sure how he did it.

                    The deal is, the old RT mainbody was longer and at the back end it had a taper to make the gun look smoother. So what they did was make the valve diameter a bit smaller to fit in the mainbody. The regular valves all have a smaller diameter up front and then step up one size larger towards the back so the back of the valve is the same outside diameter as the mainbody.

                    What needs to be done is the extended part with the taper on the back of an RT body needs to be cut off so it matches a standard mainbody. It will then fit E-Mags, RT-Pro's and it technically can fit Mag rails with the square slot, but they don't always line up properly.

                        Woah... that gun is like a mythical weapon. That was an incredible marker. If you play with it in the woods, then everyone move towards the light (moths drawn to the flame), but then your team mates can go anihilate them. Really cool gun.

                          Where I play the woods give pretty good cover (lots of big trees in Alabama) so it doesn't give off a glare.

                          But, I hardly play woods anyway.
