Upgraded valve?
hi all, looking for a upgraded valve assembly, my understanding is addicted2airguns is no longer around. Would have been my first stop. Have found a guy on ebay that makes mauder parts that look well made,anyone with feedback would be appreciated! :4:

Where do I find the Marauder Air Rifle forum?
I need a couple of custom Matador air valves made.
I just got my gun back from Wicked Air Rifles. Put the War Valve, 3D depinger, WAR hammer, TP, heavier hammer spring, and repaired a leak. It went to him getting 8 shots 900 930 900 from 3150 to 2500. Now it gets 16 shots over 900fps from a 2450 fill down to 1800. No hammer spring Preload. 3000psi and 3 turns on hammer spring and Kings went 1005! And very quiet @ 3000psi. You can milk a ton of power with his equipment. Regulate it for 24shots at 45fpe. And Travis is a great guy to deal with.
That is a stock geometry, bolt cocking build. The side handle will be used on the long-travel version. The only issue I am having with that design work is which side to put the handle on…lol
Given the velocity that 160 FPE happened at, a slightly heavier boolit would net more energy I think…but it is what it is at this point, at least ’til a heavier mold appears.
cheers,

I have to assume the bolt no longer cocks the rifle? i.e. You have a separate method of cocking it? Man… 160 fpe…. from a MRod…
I hope to get my hands on a WAR valve shortly. I have modified OE marauder valves fairly extensively, and have built with other valves at rather ridiculous ME levels( 160 FPE in 30 cal with 70 gr boolits). I believe I am up against the hammer energy limit, and the next build will have mods done to leave me running 1.5″ of hammer travel and a 25# spring. These builds will also get tool steel sears as the Gen1 rifles I am playing with scare me slightly with the OE sears…LOL
cheers,
Douglas
yep- that would be Wicked Air Rifles… He’s working with Marmot Militia too. As of right now the valve is still being worked on, but it’s veeery close to being done. They don’t want to put out a half-assed product. From the threads on the Marauder forum, results are looking pretty good!!
Yamaha while your asking around might want to try
and ask the oldpro, He has been doing some talking about a super valve,
I will Email you the site,,, PM you
No worries! I have yet to install (still waiting on other parts), but Hill’s valve look really good! He can set it up any way you like… Me, since I’ll be regulated, and didn’t want to mess with that metering screw, he set it up so that the valve will best utilize the reg. He also sent me a transfer port specific for my valve, and how I am going to use the rifle… Awesome to deal with!! So is Motorhead. Very helpful guys. The forum as a whole is kinda dead though for some reason. But you can get a lot of information from there. I have!
Thanks for the reply much appreciated. I’ll go check it out over there.
Head over to the Marauder air rifle forum… “Motorhead” makes a light weight hammer if you’re going to reg it, and “Hill” sells modified valves. “Hill” also makes some other parts too… Good looking stuff! I have a light weight hammer and a custom valve!
