Velocity Adjustment

[MikeDean]

Quick question and I know it's lame.

How do you adjust the velocity on a b2k? Thank you

[buzzboy]

Just about to ask the same question. Is it the lpr or the hpr?

[Xnuke]

Both the LPR and HPR can affect velocity but the HPR should be used to adjust to desired velocity. Adjust HPR to around 200-225 psi. Set your LPR - turn in clockwise until solenoid starts to leak then back off 1/2 turn so it stops. Then adjust HPR for desired velocity. Make small adjustments with the regulator.
Keep your regs clean and lubricated to ensure best performance and consistency.

Where is the LPR?

[buzzboy]

Its the thing sticking out the gun body under the barrel. It has a slot in it that fits a quarter perfectly hint hint

how do i lube my reg??

[MikeDean]

run oil through the asaand dry fire the gun, opr take it all apart and oil the o-rings

^ yeah, not such a good idea as oil gunks up the solenoid and causes them to die (according to ICD)

I tear down my regs and lube all orings and moving parts with DOW 33 or an acceptable substitute.

yeah, putting lube in the ASA is great for blowbacks and such, very easy, but on a bushy you shouldnt do it. look at the stickies, there is a detailed thread about setting your regs. look in the ultimate FAQ sticky, B2K section, there is a detailed lubing guide.

NO OILS!!!! oils will ruin ur solenoid when they get there. thats like a $90-ish investment. its a b2k u dont really need to lube it. but if u want to get DOW33 at any hardware store, put a light coat over the o-rings. dont really put anything over ur ram shaft either. it will eventually gunk up in there and ur ram might get stuck during games. just make sure ur lpr and ur hpr are clean. a slight coat over o-rings is all u need, no globing. again... no oils.
