What is the Best Regulator

[Sr. Lapiz]

All you got to do is chose the best of the best!

[blake_sw]

Dude, you forgot sooo many other regs. First, are you using HPA or Co2? If Co2, I'd say the Stabilizers. There's no diff in performance between the female and male, the difference is the way they screw in the gun. Lots of people have diff opinoins on regulators for HPA, I like the Vigilante and Pure Energy regs.

the AKA Sidewinder is the BEST IMO. The gladiator also kicks serious butt, if it's working. I've heard of so many people getting lemon gladiators it's scary. I also heard so many people who get 275-275-275 at the chrony using a glad, so it's a toss up there. The Max-Flow aint my cup of tea, it's damn good, but I'm not entirely sure it's the best. Vigilante is good if you're on a budget or it's the onyl one around, I use one and get pretty damn good consistency, but I'd like to be shootin the exact same speed with every shot, so I'll upgrade to a sidewinder eventually

Hey twitch, were do you buy your gear? Do you know how much the sidewinder costs? I'm thinking about adding a Pure Energy reg on my Millenium, good choice? I don't need a low pressure reg cause lots of users have had hard times getting the Mill even under 350psi (comes stock at 500psi). It's also good to know that team Aftershock uses Pure Energy regs and tanks. Check out tourney pics at http://www.warpig.com and you can see it's true.

if you were running a Co2 set-up then i would have to say that the palmer stabalizer is a excellent reg for Co2. The Max Flo reg is awesome too. If any of you have ever shot a Impulse turbo on Co2, then you will know what Im talking about. The max-flo is also amazing when in use on HPA systems too! so because of the Impy's performance on Co2, and HPA systems, Max-flo is the bestest

I buy all my stuff from my proshop, dont really believe in the whole "order it all off the net" craze that people seem to ahve going. I think of it this way, if the internet company sends you a busted up product, alot of times you're on your own. If your proshop gives you a busted up product, you can either choose not to buy it on the spot, or if you dont find out until later, usually you can take it back. As for regs, something like a Pure energy will work great on a milenium

i've got a vigilante, i popped a gauge on it today, real easy. if you don't have a thick wallet go for a vig, i haven't had any problems with it so far.

[JesterDude15]

If your using C02 go for a Stanilizer.

If you have Nitro, get a Vigilante.

[Saiyan_warrior]

Im gonna get a Gladiator reg for my piranha and get a co2 seal with it. Macdev said it would work with both nitrogen and co2 and wont mess up.

[em1freak]

hey simon you say you put a gage on a vidgilante i didn't know it has a gage port so many people told me it didn't if it does im getting on tommorrow i've been looking at the gen x 2 but that will break me so i was also looking at the vidgy and asked so people here about a gage and they said you can't so i almost bought a genx 2 today then i decided i'd wait a while.so can you put a gage on the regulator??

[Brix]

Vigilantes are ok, but for the best flow I'd go with either a AKA Sidewinder or the MacDev Gladiator. I Just got the Glad to replace the Vigi and works way better as far as air flow to the gun

[blake_sw]

Ha, I'm getting +/- 3 with my PE reg!

[JesterDude15]

My Problem with PEs is that there is no guage port.

[blake_sw]

I can jus get one tapped into my ASA port.

[JesterDude15]

Yeah, but still it is ridiculous not to put one into the reg.

I've been having trouble with the gauge, it fits but it always just says the input pressure, i don't think the vigilante has a specific in/output port. i'm gunna try to get a new asa
