Are there any gas thru foregrips in existance that look like a palmer stabilizer? I just got nitro so I want to let go of the stabilizer but I want a foregrip that looks almost identical. this means no grooves for the fingers, preferably with the hose coming out of the top and side versus mosts bottom. Etc...
Anybody seen one like that, or semi similar?
Please post what they are and possibly where I could get one.
Thanks!!!

Im not sure, but I think you could gut it and it would act as a gasthru? :confused: Or you could go with the worr games reg that comes stock on there base model cockers at pbgear.com for like $50, whch I also think you could gut and use as a gas thru. People correct me if I am wrong.

The sidewinder reg is the only thing I can think of. Hey Squid, what part of Arkansas you from?

Toakes, I am looking for something that looks like a reg, but is NOT a regulator. My issue is that I want to keep the look without the actual operation of my Palmer. I will see if I can gut it like Squid said.
I want the looks only.

Yeah the CP's do look pretty good. Thanks!

Actually would it work to gut my AIR instead, since I know how to take it apart and can? I haven't the slightest clue even where to begin if I took apart the palmer.
Would there be any difference in performance.

Note: I would use the palmer then to adjust velocity

Don't gut your AIR (or whatever compressed air system) 'cos your Palmer won't be able to handle the input pressure not to mention the hose's connecting the two will not take the pressure either. CO2 was fine but now with Nitro you are into a whole different world. Try to gut the Palmer or buy a gas through, way cheaper than trashing a perfectly good reg.

I can't believe what i just read about a palmer reg!

The Palmer Stabilizer in both standard and LP versions is the best reg I've used. It and the sidewinder are awesome for low pressure applications.

The Palmer flows extremely well and if you have a flow problem look at your tank because I have not had any problems with my stabilizer. When my latest neato reg is having problems, that big huge nickle plated beast gets on the gun.

It has seen duty on Mags (co2), Cockers(nitro), an Angel, and several other guns including a spyder for demo.

The owner of the Angel had his minireg die on him so I handed him this for the tourney and he had never had that type of performance from his gun. He was ecstatic and looking for a replacement for the minireg.

Please don't diss the palmer reg. It works fine up to at least 1100 psi input as I've tested and as low as 400 that I have used for an extended period of time.

This reg is currently on my AKA Merlin with Raceframe and I get zero drop off under rapid fire.

Thanks GP for an excellent battle horse of a reg.

he means gutting the air valve (mag reg)

DO NOT gut the mag reg, you can easily rape your internals if u put too much pressure into it, stop being so picky and just set the stabalizer at a higher pressure... then you'll be fine
