    that is interesting, and cool.
    I kind of thought that was what was going on. so the Mq valve must have a fairly high flow rate? it can discharge enough air to shoot the ball in a decent amount of time I take it?what kind of times are we talking? at first , the bolt must be moving fairly slow, but accelerating quickly. this could be an advantage as far as not chopping paint. perhaps the Mq valve is open all the way to the point where the bolt lets air out to the ball, then it closes?

    I've been working on the efficiency of the mag design myself. so far, so good. I've been able to get the operating pressure down to about 280, without increase the dump chamber size. but it's a work in progress. don't know how much lower I can go... perhaps 220?

    the thing I don't like about springs, is that they are always a constant. a constant opposing force. it's really not needed. force is only needed to return the bolt. but the spring is very simple, and very cheap.

    these are definitely my favorite kind of threads.

        If they did that, then you could take the design and patent it. Once they get the patent stuff figured out and they release the valve itself, they will release schematics.

          so say this would go into production, all u need is the frame, valve and reg right? i can't wait until it's released. eblade trigger feels soooooo much nicer than emag trigger to me

                It's very interresting to see some upgrade 'around Mags'. Hope this upgrade will be at the same level of quality that the AGD's products ?!? Maybe a better spread in Europe ?

                But definitly too bad that you don't use THE Mag Valve (Xvalve). Tom is right when he write : " if it doesnt use the mag valve how is it a mag ".
                Finaly, what 'MAKE the Mag' -> his valve, not his shape. No ?

                    I have spoken to 'someone' about making this valve as compatible with existing 'Mag parts as possible. Even using an existing Intelliframe to accomodate the battery and board. Every facet of the Mag is being examined at the current moment.

                    Just stay tuned. If we can do an electro kit that just involves the new valve and a board that can be a retrofit, then that represents some major savings for the players.

                    Stay tuned.

                          The mQ-Valve uses a 9volt and we know that we can basically fit everything within the confines of a 45 frame. That be said, there's still a number of technical challenges ahead.....but how much fun would life be if there weren't any challenges to overcome.

                            I totally agree, the challenge of creating something unique is very cool. Don't listen to the people saying it's not "Mag" enough, who cares? Coming up with your own ideas using some pre-existing parts from here and there makes perfect sense, especially at the prototype stage. Like several others have stated, I will be waiting not-so-patiently for video of this thing in action.

                            P.S., what is a Muppet Moving Machine???
