| Review: |
This reg is the freak system of regulators. You can change out the regulator parts to convert it from high pressure to low pressure or vice versa. The medium to high pressure version comes with 2 springs one for medium pressure one for high pressure. The high pressure spring is from 450psi to 900psi about. The medium pressure spring goes from 450psi to about 200psi.
If you run a super low pressure gun you would get the LP version which goes from 0psi to 220psi. This version is a bit wider than the regular version as to accommodate the larger piston which allows you to run at such low pressures. As long as you use the correct version or spring for your marker this reg will operate perfectly.
Another benefit is that this reg has its pressure gauge in place after the gas has been regulated so you see the pressure going into the gun rather than the pressure going into the reg. This is much more useful for seeing how efficient your marker is running. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great reg. A bit hard to find online if they don't sell it in your local store. Is as good if not better than alot of the other regs out there. Its intechangability makes it a more viable choice than the LP only regs like the Maxflow or Sidewinder. |

|
| Strengths: |
-Fairly Inexpensive, I got mine brand new off Ebay for $45
-Very consistent, with my setup I get about +-2/3 fps with my PE tank
-Does wonders for accuracy
-Come with a guage
-Great Customer service, they helped me set up my reg in about 2 minutes.
-Two different styles, Regular sized and Mini for people who like or dislike foregrips
-Looks Cool
-Very easy to adjust
-Works Great with CO2
-Works even better with Compressed Air |
|
| Weaknesses: |
There's an orange seal inside the reg when you first get it that you must remove before it'll work.***
Otherwise I have had NO problems or complaints about this reg whatsoever |
|
| Conclusion: |
This reg works just as well as regs twice the price. One of my friends has a Maxflo vertical reg on his Eclipse cocker and a Raptor nitro tank. There's no difference in the consistency of our guns. I love it!!!!
*** To remove the orange seal, first take out the pressure adjuster on the bottome of the reg and take the spring out. The orange seal is in the spring, remove it and replace the pressure adjuster, VOILA- the best dang reg you can get! |

| Review: |
I've found this to be a nice regulator. I just use Co2 now and works great. I know it's helping my consistency. It's affordable compared to Stabilizers and such and that's good. The Hyper Inline looks really nice on my A-5 and is easy to grip if used on a different gun. The neat thing is the ability to switch between high or low pressure by just changing springs. That feature is very useful when making changes to your marker. I really can't think of bad points because it does it's job like it's supposed to. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy it, I don't see anything wrong with it and the price is right. |

| Review: |
I have a 04 WGP Karnivor and was using it with the STO stock reg that it came with...the consistency of this stock reg sucked...I installed the CenterFlag reg with the purple medium pressure spring because my marker runs at about 210-250psi. Every time I shoot now the gauge on the reg bounces (from the vibration of the shot) but returns to the set pressure and my shots follow each other more consistently.
Before I would have some drop off in a series of shots, now they all fly about the same distance back to back and my shot spread is much tighter.
The stock STO reg is built like a Pure Energy reg with about a dozen washers stacked on top of each other but the CenterFlag is built like a tank and the internals look much more beefier, and is more simple than the STO (or Angel) regs.
Not the best looking reg...I get major crap about the looks of it on my gun....but function over vanity.....if it performs good then who cares about the looks! |
|
| Conclusion: |
I like it...one of the best regs out there...up there withCP, AKA & Palmers Stabilizer and I think more consistent that the Bob Long Torpedo (which is very good). If you want a good reg that's solid, that works like it's supposed to and has easy maintenance then buy this! |

| Review: |
This is really a great regulator. When I bought my autococker like 4 years ago (nearly 5 now), it was already on there. I hadn't really heard much about it. I used it and it worked great with my HPA set up. The regulator was about 2 fps +/- at the chrono. It also has a fast recharge rate when I was running the swing trigger. Not like the swing trigger is that fast, but it is quite different from my current pump set up. Now that I play pump, and I shoot like 250 paintballs everytime I go out to a field, I switched to Co2. Even with Co2 the reg is super consistent. Of course, the reg gets cold when the liquid Co2 gets in there. But the reg does a good job of keeping it from messing with the velocity of the gun. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Very good consistent reg. Buy one, especially if you can pick one up for cheap! |

| Review: |
My MaxFlo on my Ratpulse went belly up. I took it apart and all these parts started flying EVERYWHERE! I lost 1/2 of them and bought a rebuild kit, got it running and then it just stopped flowing. Took it to a Smart Parts Authorized dealer, they couldn't figure out what was going on. They sent it to Smart Parts they can't figure it out either...
In the mean time I was regulator-less, and the dealer I sent the reg through suggested this CenterFlag reg...and he gave me a good deal $85, compared to a new $150 MaxFlo.
Not only is this thing 2 oz lighter, but it performs flawless. The foregrip actually gives you something to hold onto, unlike the MaxFlo. Needless to say once I got the MaxFlo back it was on Fleabay and this thing permenantly stayed on my Rat. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I can't say anything bad about this reg. I get absolutely no shoot-down, and consistency is dead on. Just read all the other reviews on here and you decide. |

| Review: |
This regulator is an excellent product. It works extremely well.. It is very comfortable in ones hands. The reg also looks good. FLOW, is not a problem for this reg. I use the LP version of this reg on my Timmi, the recharge on this reg is fantastic. Maintenance is simple and easy. Just lube and slap back together. Not too may parts to misplace or loose!
The only bad things about this reg are, that it can be adjusted by hand on the fly. Meaning, that you can do it on the field with no tools. Second, that the fitting comes out the side. Other than that, its one heck of a reg. |
|
| Conclusion: |
As I mentioned before, this is an extremely good working reg! I like it and I recommend it. However, the fact that someone of poor morals may use it to cheat does bother me a bit. I wish it had a lock out of some kind. A cheater will cheat no matter what I guess. I just feel we shouldn't make it any easier for them.
TOP NOTCH product! You will not be disappointed. |

this is one of the most consistent, if not the most, reg made. Very high quality and can take a punishment...i can shoot a string of paintballs literally...not one ball will drop out of line. its an amazing reg i highly recommend buying it. comes with multiple springs to change to low or med pressure, perfectly adjustable |
|

Nothing is bad about this..i got mine for 79 on ebay and it works wonders... |
|
| Conclusion: |
if you are going to spend money on an ans...try to look harder and find this product its a little harder to find, but its well worth the effort. Your gas efficiency will increase and you won't be disappointed. |

|

|
|
| Strengths: |
can lower pressure on my tippman to 200 and get about 280 psi consistently
easy to lower or raise pressure with allen wrench
comes with gauge, high and low pressure springs, and an instruction pamphlet on how to clean and use the reg
very easy to take care, the handle part unscrews and you can get access to clean internals
tournament lock- have to use allen wrench to change pressure (good i suppose because it makes it tournament legal) |
|
| Weaknesses: |
I havent had any problems
only thing is it doesnt come with allen wrench but the largest one the came for my tippmann works on it |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is one of the best regulators you can buy the workers at my store recommended it to me a little bit pricey mine was $120 at my local store (pev's paintball) very good quality and very good consistency i highly recommend it |

|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
This reg has an excellent consistancy. Only reg I have ever shot that has cronoed at the same fps three times in a row. Stays consistant at rapid fire, always. Even with Co2 it works well. And if you dont like holding a foregrip you can buy a mini one for like 10 bucks more. The gauge on this pic is actually smaller that the gauge that they currently use. And unlike ANS regs the gauge doesent get in the way of the LP chamber. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
It is very expensive. But you get what you pay for. As I said before you can get a small or large version depending on if you like foregrips or not. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Dont buy an ANS reg, because they are not as comfterble to hold. I trust centerflag with the quality of their products, and this reg is great, the best I have ever used. |
