    Aftermarket On/Off Valves?

    I got two aftermarket on/off valves (one by Check It, and the other by AKA) in a mag parts lot I recently purchased, and am wondering if there is any merit to installing them in a classic Lvl 7 gun?

    From what I understood, there aren't any aftermarket valve parts that make any kind of meaningful difference in performance, but when I was looking these parts up, I saw people praising the reactor on/off so now I'm not so sure.

    Any ideas?

      The Reactor was very similar to the RT on/off, and may have even been the inspiration for it.

      If I recall correctly, most other on/offs were just tops that allowed for "high flow" and crap like that. The flow issues of the classic valves were solved pretty early on.

          Ok, thanks. I guess I'll just keep these as spares.

              AGD RT On/Off forget the aftermarket stuff.

                  Ah ok. I was reading about that for reducing trigger weight. Is it just the pin, or the whole assembly?

                  Also will this just reduce the trigger weight, or will it add rt properties also?

                      The whole on/off assembly w/pin. It makes the trigger lighter and easier to not short stroke.

                      I had a reactor in my mag for most of the 90's - I liked it, but can't say there was really much of a difference.
