If that's what you're going a regular Action floating valve is just as good.
In fact, I actually prefer it now since you don't have to assemble it.
THe Firefly one has a tendency to unscrew that top pointy piece and shoot out of the barrel. lol.
Humm well I am confused...because in your guide you mentionned that the Firefly valve was giving better effeciency, better durability and more power... so from my understanding...more effecient would mean less gas wasted...and you are now saying that I will spend more gas :-\ there is probably something that I am missing.

For the conical parts flying...strange you guys mentionned that is flying left and right but in your guide that it was by far the best floating valve...I was thinking about putting locktite on it anyways.

Regarding the stock slide with the 150% recoil spring...well for me after 2 extended mags in burst...the stock slide cracked and front post screw too (even with Jb weld) :-\ Bought the nineball recoil with another stock slide and never had any prob with a cracked slide after...
