A nice high flow tank, either an eggy or a halo, and maybe a barrel system.

Yeah all that stuff will work. A lp tank will work better but a HP tank will be ok.

you really need a halo. you'll outshoot your revvy and and egg.

clamping low-rises are always a winner's choice.

yah dude drops are horrible. the space frame is already moved up forward witch will feel awkward with a drop.

you can use a revy if u dont have the cash for a halo, but your gonna wanna put the mrof down to about 12

get them on ebay...

yea, if you're shooting a halo, definately get a low rise. This seems to alleviate the few ball breakage issues still seen with speeds and halos. .. puts a little less presure on the bottom ball.

ccm has some clamping low rises too. I too could not find any of the check-it ones in black. The ccm ones come in black and nickel though.
www.paintballgateway.com has them.

ya know drops are preference and how you feel like playing, I was always a no drop guy, then the other day I figure what the hell, and I slapped on a toxic drop with a 32 degrees on/off onto my ir3 and used a 45 nitro duck xstrem ,the gun is so comfortable. I can't get used to my angel air on it now. Same with my cocker, drops can help balance the gun, but beware, if using anything larger than a 45, if it's not a mni type drop where the bottle itself really isn't under the grip frame and it's one of the longer ones, the gun might be too tall, w/ a 45 it works out ok.

Thanks for the sites. And that uni mount is probably what i would get if i had a preset.
I am also purchasing a speed, like everybody else it seems now, how about those cross-fire tanks, or pure energy I was hearing, please give me some suggetions, because Im looking for a new tank anyways, and can you explain what the main diff. in performance if I get a low verses a high presseure tank. thanx a lot

i am using a 68ci/4500psi Crossfire LP Output tank. it is preset at 450psi and it seems to be working perfectly. i can adjust the velocity below 300fps it seems with out a problem...
Is it important to use a low pressure tank , instead of a high?

no it does not matter. You get more shots obviously (sp?) w/ a lp tank but hp ones work fine on the speed. If you have a problem cronying it below 300, just lower the dwell. It should work just fine then.
