Help. regs and expansion

Im new to paintball and i like to know how everything works on my gun. I was wondering what a regulator does and an expansion chamber does. What are the differences between each one too? thank you for the help.

A regulator does just that, it regulates.
It keeps the pressure going into your gun pretty consistant.

An expantion chanber does just that, acts as an extra space for liquid CO2 to expand. If using HPA, it's pretty much useless.

There might be more info on this kinda stuff in the stickies

ok cool, no that answered my questions. So a regulator just keeps your air pressure consistent so all your shots are accurate?

Get a 45, nothing really the 45 holds more air.
