Over the last year or so, I've been testing out check valves in my pneumags. A check valve is a one-way valve that keeps some air in the lines even after you degas your gun, and that extra little bit of air allows you to reset the on/off pin and remove your valve without having to grab an extra tool to push up on the sear. I've been very pleased with the results, and now this is something I'd like to share with everyone else who has a pneumag.
The problem is that they're expensive. If you don't already have spare air fittings lying around, the parts could cost you about $35-$40. If I instead buy a bunch of parts in bulk and resell them, I think I can get the cost down to $25 or so, but it's still not a cheap upgrade.
Anyway, I'm just curious how many people would buy a check valve if I got them in stock. This isn't a preorder. I'm willing to front the cost and order a bunch for whoever wants one. Wait time would be relatively short too, just a few weeks. I just don't want to go through all that effort unless there's decent demand for it. So if you're interested in a check valve (or two), please let me know.
Here's a video with some more details about the check valve.
