Help with Expansion Chamber

I am looking at a expansion chamber for my tippmann a5 and i was wondering if it would actually help my gun and make it more accurate or help conserve some of my CO2? I have no idea what it truly can do. Any help is great!

i run a 98c by tippmann and haven't really needed an expansion chamber...instead i decided that i will save my $$ until i can get an HPA tank, which will eliminate the need for an x-chamber

All an expansion chamber will do is keep the Co2 expanding at a steady rate. What this means is that each shot you take will use roughly the same amount of air. This can lead to improvements in accuracy so it is a worthwhile upgrade. You can also do what beach is saying and go with a HPA. Depends on how much money you want to pump into your A5.

Go with a Palmer Stabilizer instead they are CO2 regulators that will keep your CO2 pressure steady and keep liquid out of your marker. Steady pressure means better accuracy and more shots per tank expansion chambers are junk by comparison.
