I definitely like the black valve and the XMag logo idea is a keeper, gives it even more character.

How much weight is saved by going to the aly valve over the SS one?

I think Tom mentioned that it saved 3 oz.

Yeah, caught that on the other classic Extreme thread just a minute ago, overall weight minus barrel and bottle was 2.6 lbs... very nice!

Now to take a guess at who Tom meant by "you know who"...

Evil......

This is really evil Tom. You are totally screwing up my goals. I wanted to get Intelliframe (got it), Level 10 (on the way), the Retrovalve (next purchase), and probably a Dye Izon and then I was going to be DONE!!! Finished. Totally satisfied with my marker. Attained the final enlightenment. Etc. Now I see these Extremes and new desires start to develop.

Darn you!!!!!!

SWEEEEEEET

Ok, we all agree that it looks awesome, but when I looked at the close-up picture of the valve, I noticed something that I never want to see from the outside of a marker...the sear. Oh, by the way, I think there is something missing in that "X" logo...maybe it's the G that throws it off. I like the black though

Where is it that you see a sear from the outside? Its totally enclosed.

The only problem with this is I Wasn't given the choice when I preordered whether or not I wanted the valve to contrast or not. I spent extra money to get my gun anodized Silver and I wanted the valve silver. I am a little upset that I am spending the extra money for silver anodizing and If the valve comes black I will want to have it anodized as well and spend even more when it could have been done at the factory with the rest of the gun. When you spend this much for a marker you want it to be exactly the way you want it. When they change something after you pre-order it tends to piss some people off. It is my opinion that if the Valve is Aluminum and can be anodized then it should be up to the customer if they want the valve to contrast of be the same color as the ordered. give the people what they want.

Well if you really want you could probably get a normal emag valve with the grey back, but i dont know how that would make it much better. By the time you see silver extremes, raw SILVER unannoed valves should be available so that works out for you.

PS- manike, the C&C is even nicer in person

hey tom ill trade you my impact and angel air for one, and maybe a flatline lmk

edit- it can be the one you licked too, im not picky

Well i am 99.99% sure that the sear doesnt sit that far back in the gun. it looks like it is sitting right above the field strip screw so i dont believe that is the sear.

It's the side of the on/off housing. You can't see or get to the on/off pin or any seals, you can just see a little bit of the housing.

I know some people don't like the 'extreme' slot milling which shows the valve. So wait for the next C&C (just don't hold your breath waiting for it to arrive since it's not a project that we have started yet)
