Anti-siphon will help to ensure liqiud does not get into your Reg. & Marker. The bottom line max flow has a long pin, when you screw your bottle on it will start blowing gas before you get it the o-ring to seal off. With the on/off valve you can screw the bottle on and then open the valve. www.actionvillage.com has the on/off valve for $20.
Hope this will help

I would keep the nitrogen. I had problems with my C02 on my impulse. That was mainly because someone put my anti siphin tube in and it wasnt set up for my gun and it always froze up.
same thing here Impygimpy..........eheh

so the on/off valve is so that co2 doesnt go into the regulator before u want it to? whats the point of that so you dont blow an o-ring?

a on/off is optional, a anti-syphon tube is a good idea.
Look at this site. it explains the tube, plus you can get it done very cheaply.
