I am looking for one for a project of mine; ( and I'd put money on them existing in very small quantities) but have been told by a few that they do not exist.

I (seem to) remember that in the summer of '03 TK released info on AO about the valves. Around the time that reverse valves came out. And if the timeline helps to jar a memory it was before he showed us the screwed up X valves ( right after the Xvalve stopped being engraved and only an X was used) with the engraving too high on the reg body. If used in an Xmag the top 1/4 of the X would be covered.

Intelliframes had just been released and Z and then Y frames followed shortly after...

And I don't believe TheMagSmith.com didn't even exist yet.

You talkin about a banjo bolt X-valve?

Never heard of such a thing, and would be VERY surprised if such a thing existed.

Never heard of such an animal. I was following AGD's development rather closely in 2002-2003, and never heard anything about that. Hope you find what you are looking for and will share with the rest of us.

To my knowledge, AGD never made such a thing... rather than make a Classc RT XValve, AGD offered the marker upgrade package....which basically was sending in your Classic RT and they send you back a RT Pro.

There are dimensional differences between the Classic RT and other mags. This is why they are not reverse compatible with most other parts from other mags.

I have a Xmag withn just the X on it. The laser engraving does sit high, so that the top portion of the X is covered by the upper body.

I always referred to them as 10 o'clock valves. Yes they were made. Yes they were made in all of the colors. I had one at one time in blue. I sold it with my blue karta.

You had a 10'occlock XValve that fit a Classic RT? How did you get it to fit in the Classic RT stainless Steel body?
