Great post, thanks for the pics... also at this point most of the aftermarket powertubes have been tweaked by manufacturers to work with the new valve. So there should be little to no issue there if you are purchasing a replacement like the JCS red hot powertube. The post above may have been using a really old version powertube.

is that cause your a tippmann dealer? i always hear about people getting new parts for their tippmann, is that cause they are still under warranty? cause i have had my a-5 since the dy the came out and i wouldnt mind a new valve or any other new parts!

It's usually because it's under warranty. Tippmann's new warranty on guns ranging from about 3 months old - into the future... runs 2 years now.

so if something broke in my marker id have to pay for it, for tippmann to send my one, right?

As anyone heard of a newer X7 valve that looks like the A5 valve (2 channels instead of 4) but with bigger channels?
