depending on who makes your tank, most manufacturers sell LP kits that will convert a pre-set HP tank to LP. they usually aren't very expensive (under $25) and are cheaper than a good quality inline reg. (usually in the $75 -$100 range).

Mac Dev's are a pretty good reg. I like them because the air line comes in the bottom of the reg., and adjustments are easy. Just don't ever use C02 in the Mac Dev regs. no matter what gun you use them on.

i just tested my speed i just got yesterday. i was using a hp crossfire on it and i was able to shoot under 240 without adjusting the shims in the minireg.

Some regs just have enough spring pressure to regulate. If you're gonna go aftermarket, I'd say Sidewinder. But a bit of tweaking on the minireg, or the air tank, will get you to shoot right without spending more money.


Air Force eh? Psshhhh...don't you guys ride a bike for a physical test? :thefinger

hes already tried the minireg mod, wont allow him to use the largest volumizer though. No more riding the bike you damn jarhead, or bulletcatcher :) We got our own 1.5 mile run now, along with some sit ups and pushups and measuring of the gut. Good times. You guys are always whining about how easy the air force is but take us away and we'll see how tough the army or marines are :)

Just what I like, a military section on Paintball. Emmit, I'm impressed, I did not realize that you were a submarinier ! You just gained alot of respect from me. AKRUSE21 and Snipers002 as well. I have alot of respect for the Navy. Afterall, the Marines are a branch of the NAVY.

if you have a crossfire tank, you can just send the tank to them and get a lp reg put in it. then you wont have to get a nasty aftermarker reg.
