Last time I checked, they don't make them for the 4/4 size nirschl.

Re: MAW valve on Nirschl
I have a set on my 6/4 Nirschl. I went to Martin's shop and he measured them for my horn. Much lighter than the stock valves paired with Martin's stems and buttons.
Very happy with the upgrade.

Re: MAW valve on Nirschl
@joshwirt How old is your Nirshl? Did Martin fabricate new valves or retrofit the original valves? I would like a set for my Nirshl
