    Are you sure it wasn't a unireg? They are basically an automag valve that was air America's regulator. And the reg of choice in the mid 90s.

      It was just about the only reg worth a damn from the mid to late 90's

      If it literally looked like a mag valve then i am 99% sure that it was a unireg. Hell, Air America didn't change the design till the Vigilante (other than changing materials & trying to take off the excess weight).

        They were a tank. Looked just like a AA raptor reg. Then again they are all basically the same.

          It was a cut mag body and valve. I remember talking to the guy and he made an adaptor to fit the power tube threading to the asa and had a cut body and custom on off assembly made to get rid of the on off. I probably wouldn't have noticed if it didn't say 68 automag and a.i.r valve on it. It was a cool cocker and it shot very well for the time. I always thought that was interesting. Many people called bs on this story over the years, but like I said, pre camera phones.
