    Are you sure your tank gauge isnt just telling you how much pressure is in the tank ?

    You have to measure the pressure coming out of the tank, not how much is in the tank.

    If you have one of the larger half dollar sized gauges, put it on a spare asa and plug the other air port in the asa if there is another.

    Screw it on the tank and open the asa knob, and your home made pressure tester will tell you what the tank regs output psi is.

      I have a gauge on my tank, as we all do, it will tell my how much psi is in the tank obviously, then I also have a gauge that is the same size as you describe, on my asa so that it would measure the output. That gauge always say 1300 psi with my shp tank as long as the tank gauge is above 1300 psi. Once the tank gauge reads below 1300 psi, the asa gauge reads the same number that is one the tank gauge. So I'm pretty sure that the gueages are accurate being the both read the same once the pressure in the tank starts to dip below 1300.

        Of course it works-its AGD

        Yoiu can simulate a shorter on-off pin by pushing the on-off top farther in using a ULT level 10 shim in between the on-off halves. It will help you adjust the pin length for testing, to see if it will help.
        Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.

          I was actually just thinking about that yesterday. I was looking at my ult after removing a shim from it because it was crazy rapid firing, but I ended up not doing it because I hadn't heard of anyone doing it before

            It has been done before with success. Only use a couple of shims. Too many shims will push the top too far and squeeze the top oring causing it to tighten on the on-off pin, which will slow down the action and cause sticking.
