I've been thinking about this for a while, but just haven't been able to figure it out...Is it ok to have an expansion chamber downline from a regulator? I mean, the pressure should stay consistent, right? I was planning on getting one of those Palmer Female Stabilizer Block Brackets, but I'd like to keep my chamber for the grip. I hope that made sense...

well, if you are running co2, this would be a good idea. the order should be as follows- tank-expansion chamber-reg-gun. i wouldn't add extra regulators because the mag already has one inside it. if you have co2, just have an expansion chamber and then the line going into your gun.

if you are running compressed air, you do not need another reg or expansion chamber. the mag already has one inside it.

not possible, the stablizier block bracket goes on the bottomline adapter, so the chamber has to be downline. so my question is, will regulated air going into an expansion chamber affect consistency?

no it shouldnt really, as long as the reg works like its supposed to..

the spyder shutter does what you are talking about, it uses a reg then an x chamber

No, regulated pressure runningn into an x-cham does not stay regulated. I use an x-cham mounted on my C02 botle, the a 2nd reg (palmer) just before the AGD reg. Works real nice. Here's a pic: (of my gun)
