Ok, so although I love my geddon reg, it's a total PITA to degas the marker. There's other ways of doing this, but this combination gave me the shortest length of fittings.

In no way are these different companies sponsoring me, I'm just putting links up because these took me FOREVER to find.

1/8" NPT Male x 1/8" NPT Male 90* Elbow Click Here (http://buyfittingsonline.gb3.com/Fittings/item7168.htm)

Add any generic Slide Check

1/4 in. Tube OD x 1/8 in. Female NPT 90* Elbow Click Here (http://www.industrialzone.com/swagelok-ss-400-8-2.html)
Once you insert the macro line and crank down the fitting it locks the insert on the line. Make sure you order extra ferrule sets with your fitting. Click Here (http://www.industrialzone.com/swagelok-b-400-set.html) (You MUST order these with your fitting, you can't order them seperatly since it comes right from Swagelok. Before anyone orders these, please pm me, I didn't order mine w/ my fitting and I don't feel like buying another fitting just to get the extra ferrules.)

This is not cheap, however it looks pretty damn good and is rated to 6000psi. Marker degases instantly with the slide check so maintaining the valve is a snap. Hope this helps some of you guys.

Have you noticed any recharge issues since you've put the slide check in? I've always thought that the passages on a slide check were small enough to cause some significant airflow restrictions in mags.

Looks like a pretty clean setup. Going to stick with my modded PC3 for now though.

Haven't noticed anything yet, I'm going to refill tomorrow and run some paint through it. I'll keep you updated.

Ok, I piggybacked using a remote line off one of my ninja tanks (1025 psi output) to the geddon reg and it worked just fine. full rt effect w/ no shootdown/slowdown/chuffing. Slide check is working perfectly.

Great job, but that does not look comfortable.

I'm a big fan of the original, but...

On the plus side, on this version, you can easily disassemble it and with a careful use of a small drill bit, you can open up the holes on the poppit to smooth out the airflow.

Well it might not be comfy for a righty but us freaks don't have that problem. And I've looked at the pc3's before, but every time I see one in the shop they're always leaking so I decided to avoid them.
