Besides what samanoususke said you can get a bob long torpedo regulator(50-60) and a new valve(30-40) and a micro line kit(10-12).

damn. Finally a question I can answer.

The purpose of the anti-siphon tube is to suck in CO2 gas instead of the liquid. This is done by having a bent tube inside your tank that curves upwards.

Theorectically, this will allow only gas to be released. However, this works only if your tank pretty much stationary.

EVERYONE advises that you get one, so I did. We'll see how much better things go for me tomorrow.

get a MALE palmer's reg. if you buy the female, you also have to buy the mounting stuff, and it looks funny. the male one just goes where your foregrip/x-chamber goes right now. and it's difficult to beat a palmer's for quality, so...

Palmers male. It replaces the foregrip. You also need a metric to standard adaptor and a macroline kit.

Why would you recommend a female vs a male? I've had a female Stabilizer for the better part of 10 years and I would not recommend such a setup to others. The male would be less bulky and wouldn't look, well, odd.



Ergo-regs are a good, inexpensive, alternative (eBay), but the Stabilizer is generally considered top-tier.

Mad Man Rocket Valve, $55
CP Reg, $60-$65

Then you need to look in to a Spring Kit, about $7 and a LPC. Shocktech makes the best one, and thats about $15.

Most regs need you to go low pressure, that why I said all of that. I say just go with the Bob Long Torpeido. Its like $60, and it goes up to 800psi, you dont have to buy all of that extra crap-o-la.

Get a Male Palmer's Pursuit regulator and you should be good. Oh and if you're going to have your tanke anti-siphoned, be sure you know which way is pointed up just in case you want to put that tank on another gun. Otherwise, that tank belongs to that particular gun in which you had your tank anti-siphoned.

The best setup is a heavy main spring with a light or medium valve.
