would these work in conjunction witha QEV or even homemade piston valve for semi-auto capabilities. anyone got any ideas for a loading mech for marbles or paintballs?

That auction is a little low on details but it should work. (PolandSpud has used them with success before)

well 10mm threads, and that they are poppet valve are all i really need to know.
POLAND_SPUD used them with commercial QEVs, but what about with a normal piston valve?

are you aware of the fact that it is a solenoid valve?? that will make this thing a bit more complicated as you need to build a circuit that will trigger it... this can be useful in some situatins but normally you'd be better off with a machanically/manually actuated valve

I think it's one of these http://www.macvalves.com/products/Three ... /34/34.pdf


well there are a lot of different loading mechs that you can use... davidvaini has tested airsoft hop-up units, which are basically just premade simple Ts. though you are limited to 6mm ammo

you can also use an air cylinder hooked up to the chamber... I never had any problems with it ... I'ts pretty much as reliable as you can get
