Title: SS valve in a Evanix and fitment question?
Post by: oldpro on September 23, 2017, 02:43:00 PM
 We started the SS valve build on a EVANIX rainstorm 2 and Im not sure what other Evanix guns share that same valve. My question is is there more than one type of Evanix valve for the common guns or do they share the same valve? Im not talking port sizes just the valve assembly in general.

 Or can someone point me to the Evanix person on this forum who would know?

Not sure who the "Evanix person" is on GTA, but you might contact Will Piatt. He definitely knows his way around more than one Evanix.

Absolutely ZERO knowledge of those inner workings, I've never even seen a valve :) :) ......Will Piatt would be the best person to ask to, he's a member here.

If you mean the whole valve block assembly then RS2 and Blizzard share that one. I believe there are differences in poppet size and channels from small bore to big bore. Sniper X2 guns have again different valve blocks with same type of valve housing nose. .45 and .50 guns have bigger size valve and housing than the .357 RS2/Blizzard.

Im only talking about the valve block not any port sizes etc, What evanix guns will the RS2 block bolt into?

RS2, Blizzard and that Stormtrooper bullpup share the valve block. .45 and up Snipers have bigger block, .357 down Snipers may use the same block as RS2 but I haven't had my hands on one so I don't know for sure. X2 model has different block.

Travis, I would be happy to send you my RS2 for you to experiment with and work some magic on if need be.  I know it would be better than before.
