| Review: |
this front lpr is the best i have ever used. this product is very efficent, very reliable, and small, this is all you need for a good LPR. you can also add a rock knob to make it adjustable without tools, but i like it without the knob, cause it stays small, and looks clean. palmers also has great cusomer service, and if your reg goes out you simply send it back to them, and they will send you it back repaird. (the guy below me who rated this a 1 doesnt know what he is doing, and if he would have sent it back he would have been happy with Palmers). BUT..... you cant cure stupidity.... so anyway this is a good reg for a good price |
|
| Conclusion: |
if you need a new LPR for a decent price go for the Palmers, due to a good product, and better customer service i give it a 10. |

|
|
| Strengths: |
It's made by Palmer..Nuff Said!
Much smaller and compact, goes well with the new trend for more compact pneumatics in the shroudless age. Works every bit as well as the Palmer Rock, which has stood as the best for years. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Only bad thing is it's not rebuildable like the regular rock is.
Easier to blow out.
|
|
| Conclusion: |
Great addition to the allready dominant line of Palmer Autococker parts.
Designed for lower pressure use than the standard Rock.
Have someone who knows what they are doing install and set it. |

| Review: |
Basically this is one of those parts that you dont really need so if your looking for it to increase performance or something its not going to
But for those looking to 'pinch' paint this will do the job nicely. The reg works merely but getting an alan wrench and turning in the screw until the cocking pressure is where you want it. I personally bought it for sh|ts and giggles because my cocker never breaks a ball so i dont have to worry about pinching paint.
Good product all in all, the installation was a lil tricky but once i learned how to installit right :P i was good. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good product, i recommend it to anyone looking to go from stock, only problem is that its a little big and doesnt match newer paintjob, if they make it look P.I.M.P. then it would be the sh!T haha.
1 down from 10 becuase of the look |

| Review: |
this awesome reg is a great upgrade for any cocker. it is fast, airefficient, and farely quiet, it is the best upgrade on my gun and has no weaknesses, people who say it is bad have no paintball experience, and probably got a used one, it has the dependability of the rock, but it is a lot smaller, it works great with n2, not just co2 |
|
| Conclusion: |
buy it, it is great |

| Review: |
I use this thing twice and it blew up on me. It kept overpressurizing then i put a rebuild kit in it and it still doesn't work. I e-mailed palmers. Got a response asking stuff i already told them like how old is it, who did i buy it from(direct from them by the way), and what was the exact problem. I answered all of their questions. That was in the begining of Januarary, i have sent three more e-mails and still no response. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy a jackhammer II much better performance and looks better |

| Marker Setup: |
05 super stock "sf"
"nexus ram" WITH chrome qev's
micro rock
macdev match stick 16" barrel |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
It out performs any other one on the market |
|
| Weaknesses: |
NONE found
(except paint consumption doubled) |
|
| Review: |
I had the ram and qev's done at the same time.
I also had the gun "tuned" by a master tech.
It shoots like a completely different gun. I think the gun even got quieter in the process.
I am now able to hit 16-18 bps with these upgrades |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy this or the rock! They come in enough colors to make anyone happy.
Do it with the ram and you WILL NOT be disappointed |

| Review: |
I bought this to replace the stock one which leaked due to bad o-rings.
This is a great reg, with my sidewinder I've gotten the marker down to 130psi and I haven't spent too much time screwing with it so I'm sure it will go down more. I haven't cronoed it yet so I don't know how consistant it is but Im sure it will be more consistant than my stock one. It comes with a barb, replacement hose (very stiff hose that I had to heat up to get on), and instructions. Also I couldn't find it online so I bought it at my local shop and got BFed on the price ($75) but O well I got and it works.
My beef is that it is so fat. It touches my 3-way at the back of the reg. But it fits. Also it doesn't look pretty. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Get it. for the price it is a very good reg.
8 for looks (sue me I like my gun to be pretty) |

| Review: |
As is true with everything from Palmers this is one awesome LPR. I find it hard to beat Palmers quality and performance. I have had no problems out of this LPR, period. only drawbacks in the world to this LPR are looks and size. It isn't milled up and made to look pretty, its made to perform. The size can be an issue at times. For instance, with my gun i would have to remove the lpr's barb to install the LPR, no big deal, just takes a few seconds more time. who cares. its a Palmers! |
|
| Conclusion: |
Awesome LPR, hard to beat. |

| Review: |
I bought this when my stock reg inexplicably stopped cocking the gun all the way. It works, great, just screw it in, attach the hose, and ajust the screw in the front until there is sufficient pressure to cock the gun. Being able to adjust the cocking pressure to the lowest necessary definitely helps the gun not chop paint when the ball hasn't completely entered the chamber (whether through short stroking or through gravity). The micro is also a little smaller and cheaper than the full rock. The down side, theoretically, is that there is no bleed off if it overpressurizes. I've never had a problem with this, although I have seen a full sized Rock have to bleed off excess pressure once, but I have no idea what lead to that situation, but I think it may have involved liquid CO2 getting into the regulator. I don't figure this will ever happen to me, or most people. This isn't the prettiest regulator out there, but that is the trade off you make for going with Palmer's quality. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good regulator, not too expensive, if you need a new reg, get this one. |
