Keep Upgrading??

[GreatKill]

Alright, I was wondering if I should either (1) Continue upgrading my A-5, or (2) should I just get an Autococker (vert '03). I love my A-5 and all, but I think I need to get a little something that isn't a blowback. If you have any thoughts you would like to share, you're more than welcome:D . My A-5's in my sig.

p.s. Don't flame me, please:rolleyes: .

[asa4575]

you have a nice a-5 already. i would save for the 03'cocker and keep the a-5 as your back up.

[GreatKill]

I'm most definitely not going to sell it :) .

[willpill]

ya. you got the money. make a custom cocker.

[GreatKill]

Do you have a mainbody suggestion? I like Lotus, but way too expensive.

[llSmithll]

why 03? the new ones come out in a little bit

[GreatKill]

I really didn't consider that:laugh: .

[Lokichi]

I agree nice A-5, not much else can be done there....ready up for a cocker.

merlin!!!

First I would replace that small tank you have. Get a 68/4500. Then get an E-Grip. And a huge Drop. Then your A-5 will be about done.

[ForceFedGlass]

And where did you find that PMI angled ASA? Got a link?

[AgentOrange]

I would agree get a new nitro tank than get a cocker. And not another PMI tank, they arent very consistant.

[Goober_AK]

New gun.
Get a 88/4500 fiberwrapped crossfire! :love:

Got it at my local store but go here (http://www.pminetwork.com/genuine.html) and go to the bottom line.

merlin!!!
Who makes it?

And a huge Drop
Got any suggestions?

And not another PMI tank, they arent very consistant.
Any ideas???

Thanks everybody:) .

[levi333]

i would recommend a Crossfire or Nitroduck 68/45

[GreatKill]

Thanks.

[Turambar]

For a tank I'd say go with Centerflag or Crossfire.

As for the huge drop part, I recommend against getting one before you try it out.

[GreatKill]

I think I'll go with a crossfire. But I'm still puzzeled about the drop.

[asa4575]

wow, im in the same situation too. i need a drop, not a freakish long drop, BUT, notice i said the word "BUT", i dont know if the steel braided hose will work. what do i need to replace the steel braided hose. i know most probably the hose will be too long for the drop.

[GreatKill]

It's ok for the hose to bend, but not at a, like, 90* angle.

[asa4575]

i know it can bend but ive seen it bent to where it should be replaced with a shorter hose or a macroline. i think thats what its called.

[GreatKill]

I think macro is for higher pressures and micro is for lower pressures.

[willpill]

merlin is made by an awesome company.

AKA

and well a 68/45 centerflag is good. for the cocker too. and

ill put my hand up for centerflag


ive gone anti drop so... Lose the drop

[AgentOrange]

Whatever you do, do NOT get microline. mAcroline is fine, I use it and it works great but do NOT get mIcroline.

[GreatKill]

Sorry to bring this thread from the dead:boring: , but should I get a secondary reg.? I was thinking a stab., but anything else would alright.

[Turambar]

You won't need one unless you're changing the operating pressure of your gun.

Exactly. If your going LP you will need that or an adjustable tank. If you dont want to lower the pressure of your gun, than if you have or want to get nitro I would now get a secondary reg. Co2 is a differnt story.

[GreatKill]

Yeah, I want to run low pressure. Any suggestions for the reg. though.

[BattleHazard]

if u still want a drop i suggest the universal drop at county, its 22 bucks, county also has a hose chart if u need it

[GreatKill]

.Check my signature and then check what you wrote. I got one already, but thanks anyways. I wish I knew though, because I bought mine for $40 :( .

[-=ReD-hAzE=-]

So you want a nice regulator now, because later on down the road you plan on switching over to LP?

Look into the Vigulanti reg. It should work just fine with what you have now, and when you make the switch you LP you can buy a set of LP springs for it. Changing it's available operating pressures to a lower range.

[AgentOrange]

Also look into the Messiah reg. It can accept 800psi inputs and is adjustable from 800-1 i beileve. Supposed to be very consistant.

[GreatKill]

Thanks everybody:) .

They only become "high maintenince" when some dumb newb starts playing with 'em without knowing a thing about them, then can't get it to work again correctly.

[tippy_skippy]

please you have to get them timed every like 3 000 shots and you hgave to flush the tubes every so often
