Hey i got a few quick questions on the autococker. First is how it with an anit siphon co2 tank? Second is how are the stock regulators. Should i replace the one in the pneumatics regulator first or the inline reg first, basically how are the regs? please be thourough, thanks a lot.

well, with an intisiphon tank, you should be ok. If you are going to always use c02,you might want to get a palmers stabilizer. It should not allow any liquid into the gun, but ..I would try to invest into some nitro. The stock reg is ok, it is adjustable but not too easily. Im gonna get a AA vigilante or a ans gen X. Im gonna upgrade my front first, that is the last place to adjust, so to me that would be more important than the inline forgrip reg. Check the link on the palmers stabilizer..

The stock reg is a great reg. The only bad thing is its a pain to adjust. You can get an upgrade that will let you adjust it externally. The inline reg will not help you much performance wise, i wouldnt upgrade it until I upgraded alot of other things on my gun. The same thing applies to the pneumatic reg, its good just a pain to adjust but you can get a kit for it that makes it externally adjustable. Changing it wil give you no performance difference. Because an aftermarket reg will be extrnally adjustabe, you can easily adjust it to give you a lighter trigger pull(if you have a low cocking pressure otherwise it wont make a difference). This can be done with the stock sledgehammer its just a little harder. Changing the pneumatics will give you the least amount of performance difference compared to almost any other upgrades not cosmetic.

I run my cocker on a 20oz anti siphon co2 tank and I have a gen x 2 regulator. I was playing outside on a cold rainy day in Oregon and my co2 literally had a thin layer of ice on it becuase it was so cold. But the gun still shot fine.
