Agg Mag (mQ-Valve)

[Lurker27]

Not to be a killjoy here, but unless I'm missing something, this doesn't sound too horribly complicated. I'm guessing that the electrical solenoid in the cocker version of the Q valve is positioned where the hammer would be. The pulse pushes back against the valve stem, which is sealed via the air pressure on the cupseal. To prevent too much battery drain, a spring could be used to naturally push against the pressure of the charged air chamber. This jives with all the tech specs I've seen.

With a mag, you'd be using the same "large solenoid valve" idea to dump into the dump chamber, with no sear, so that the act of dumping actuates the valve and pushes the ball. This also seems to jive with what I've seen (no sear assembly).

Of course, the freestyle from ICD is pretty similar to a mag...A similar style retrofit is probably possible.

...If I'm right, then, it wouldn't work in a bushy, because the bolt and valve assemblies are linked, unlike a cocker. But that's just me.

could you guys worth the "q-valve " into a buhsy? woul;d it perform better?

Yes it would on a Bushy but there would be modification done to the gun that would be considered "custom" and as such, isn't a drop-in.

Your guess is a little off but you are close to the gist of the valve's working principles.

The only thing with the Freestyle is that it still needs an off-the-shelf 'noid to actuate a mechanism in order to dump the air. The mQ-Valve doesn't.

It not an automag anymore it's something else.

Right you are. It's another option that hopefully would lead to players buying Mags now that there's a viavle electro mod soon to be available.

I think its awesome. Looks like a mag, if you tell people its a mag there going to belive it.(IMO thats most of it) And maby they can work with AGD to get a new electronic mag out there.

We all want to see a video of the mq-valve mag in action!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!

So is a mag still a mag with an X-valve and hyperframe (or hair)? What if agd didnt maket he x-valve would all of you x-valve guns not be considered mags? Be optomistic, maby this design is superior to the AIR or RT valve system. I think its awesome hes trying to get a mag like gun back on top here. The majority of you say its not a mag because of the valve just because AGD didnt make it. Then all of you need to start looking down on the Hair, its not made by AGD or his work.

he could put a purdy design on it and package it on a new marker with some nice tunamag parts

Alright, I have a few questions about this valve.

First off, can it be used with co2 and to what effect?

Also, is there any update on the possibility of packaging this valve with a board and trigger, as "drop into" the intelliframe?

Thanks,
Don

God it'd look so cool with a rpg 90* chimera frame and a logic alpha rail.
