Lightbulb Which upgrade should I get?

I've got a G2 that I just got running again (thanks Ross & Chuck!), and I wanted to upgrade something on it. I've got about $25 (I know, it isn't much), but I have found a couple things that would fit my budget AND seem to have gotten decent reviews on pbreview.com. I'm not a hardcore player, so I don't need top-notch everything, just something to make my marker a little nicer.

What should I get? Everything on my marker is stock. I currently have a bottomline, and would like to keep it. Oh, I'm using CO2 (no HPA fill stations here).

PMI Razzor Barrel 14" for $18 (incl. shipping)
Ebay
pbreview

Empire Inline Regulator (w/gauge port) $20 (incl. shipping)
Ebay
pbreview

Ion Inline Regulator ($23 incl. shipping)
Ebay
pbreview: ???

There's also a WGP reg here and a Pure Energy reg here, but neither has a port for a gauge from what I can tell.

What should I get? Or do you have a better suggestion (include link, if possible, please)?

Thumbs up Thanks!

Hmmmmm... I may just do that. Amazon has it new for $30, and they also have a "get my credit card and you get $30 of credit for anywhere on Amazon" deals. i always cancel those cards asap, so I could get the J&J AND a reg. So if I got the J$J, which reg would be the best?

Oh, and what's the point of an on/off asa? Sorry, noob question, but I haven't quite figured that part out yet. Seen 'em, but not sure what they're for.

ok first of all those credit cards usually have a cancalation fee so before you get all excited about it realize that you will be paying more than that free $30 they give you. a good on/off asa (my favorites are the CP mini, check them out for sure) will allow you to turn on or off the air supply to your marker. when you turn it off it will also vent out the pressure thats still in the marker (most do, some are cheap and do not) this makes screwing on and off your tank super easy since there is not 800 psi pushing on it anymore. one note though, if you are using CO2 you will most likely need a new braided steel line unless by chance the one you have ends in a 90 degree elbow.

i wouldnt dump too much money into a reg, go find a cp reg, last i checked they were $20-$30 and from what i hear pretty solid regs

CP regs are not good for blowbacks, unless you mod for LP you can't run one since they only go up to 600psi.

They are also terrible if you run CO2, buy a used Bob Long Torpedo for ~$15.

As for the barrel, a J&J as suggested above is the way to go. :
