      HPA is regulated, for the most part under 900psi... I thought that CO2 went to higher pressures than 900psi? are you sure the story is true was the X-chamber homade ?...lol

        He is kidding. An expansion chamber does nothing for HPA/Nitrogen. Heck it doesn't doa lot for CO2 unless it is in Cold weather.

              Load of bull. If anything you are getting less pressure from the itro than the Co2.
              Lots of people here use X-chambers as gas through forgrips. They probably just wanted to sell you another grip.

                It only explodes if you forget to install the kiniptin pin.

                            Just dont forget the barrel bearing and you should be all set.

                            hint, there is no such thing

                            :)

                            I used an exp chamber with air all the time. Im still here..

                            Good to know that somone of Tom's status seeks "relief" from a sport he helped create. A sport now ruled by a single patent.
