Get a Palmer Stabilizer. It's more expensive than the ex-chamber (about $85), but it keeps liquid C02 out really well, and you can use it if you ever upgrade to nitro.

or you could get an $8 anti-sypon put on your tank

Here's my opinion:

1. anti-siphon tube
2. Good reg (stabilizer or maxflo)
3. xchamber

do you need a expansion chamber if you have a anti siphon tube and 2 regs (one came w my gun and im going to buy a $70 reg)

Well, your remote system should act as a 2.5' expansion chamber itself, so I don't really think you'd need one, unless you are having problems with liquid C02 still getting into your gun...

Don't use an anti-siphon tube if you use a remote!!!:eek:

A remote will do the same thing, but if you use an anti-siphon tube with it it will suck liquid co2 into your gun untill your tank's about half empty.

A remote acts like an anti-siphon tube.

Or you could not buy any of that stuff, and buy a nitro tank, no CO2 at all :nod:

Like I said, the Palmer Stabilizer keeps liquid C02 out well. However, you definately shouldn't use an anti-siphon if you have a remote. They will conter-act each other and turn it into a siphon. So I'd suggest either taking off the remote, or the anti-siphon, and see if that makes a difference before you buy another reg.

there is no way I am going to take off the remote with the tank on it it makes the gun way to heavy... and besides the thing cost me 50 bucks, so i am going to use it

Well then you'll need to take off the anti-siphon or get a tank without one. I'd reccomend getting this done over a reg, because you don't want to have this problem.
