      Yup! $75.33 plus 11.95 shipping and handling. I couldnt resist owning a piece of history so i got it.

      Does anyone recognize what type valve it has on it??

        Might mean it has the newer type regulator piston in it.. or might not. All of them usually run on HPA, no modding needed.

        Normal Classic valve.

          Thanks for the replys everyone.. when i saw OH MAG on the valve i thought it had been swapped from a newer model valve.

            The valve is from an Oh Pollack Mag. I just had one pass through here last week. Pretty much a standard Classic valve with a label on it.

              That looks like a WGP inline reg on your vertical ASA. The Automag is already regulated so I would pull that reg off to avoid starving your 'Mag of flow. With the reg on an HPA tank, that would actually be triple regulating your setup...totally unnecessary.

                the regulator could be gutted and is just acting as a gas-through grip.

                  Thanks for the clarification... you had a complete Oh Pollack or just the valve?

                  If it isnt gutted already like cyco suggested ill probably gut it myself.

                      The inline reg has a hole that air was leak thru when i aired it up. Do anyone know why it does that?

                        safety release hole. in the event the regulator piston leaks, the high-pressure gas will vent out through that hole instead of going into your marker and either causing a hot shot or damage to the marker. it looks like you'll have to either get a proper gas-through grip, or just run the air hose from the asa to the valve (you'll want a 10-11" length of stainless hose if you want to go that route).

                        side question, are you using hpa or c02? if you're using c02, you might want to get an expansion chamber instead of a gas-through grip.

                            Looks like an old SP 2 piece. As in half AL half SS. It was kinda a gimmick back around 2000. May be a nockoff of the sp though. Some of the other brands did that.
