    ReTro Valve legal?

    One of the local shop owners around me is trying to tell me not to upgrade my mag to a retro valve... he says that they're not going to be tourney legal for much longer, that they're being phased out for some reason. I don't really believe him, but I figured I'd check here with you guys... since this is where the mag gurus lurk

    being tall is good, except when you're the last one on your team and stuck behind the smallest bunker on the field.

      Havent heard that rumor.... It is true about Tippmann RTs however. Retros are still and in all likelyhood will remain legal.

          Denial will not change the fact that the RT valve is legal. He may wish it was not legal but it is.

              only the Tippmann RT is illegal, because from what I understand it always runs in 'run away mode' or is much too easy to set up in run away mode, the 'mag RT valve is completely legal as long as it IS NOT running in run away mode, thats the governing factor if the mag RT valve is in run away mode, then yes, it is considerd illegal, if its operating normally and out of run away mode then yes, it is perfectly legal. its more of a matter on the semi-only rules, where in run away mode, it can be difficult, if not impossible to get one ball fired for one trigger pull. Thats how I understand it at least.

                  Absolutely not. It's tourny legal and always will be.

                          Yeah, they're legal, otherwise we'd have heard about it. What is this "Run Away Mode", by the way?
