    Would this do anything for a mag ?

    ok here goes ,take an x valve ,have both sides drilled out for a macro fitting , buy one of those asa's with the 2 air holes ,one on each side and hook up them acro and screwa tank in, would this do anything ? i think it would look prety cool andmaybe help out performance wise ?any thoughts?

    I seriously doubt that it will help performance in any way. On a mag, the greatest air restriction with a reasonable air line setup is the bottle reg. No need to double it up...won't make anything worse though, so if it's for looks, sure....

      I've already tapped an ASA for a 10-32 barb fitting for my pneumag.

          It might look cool, but the only way I would think that you might notice a difference is with Microline(Not Macroline). If you really want to test it, the Classic RT has 6 inputs in the rail.

            I'd think it would put a lot of torque on the reg. Unless I didn't understand your question.

              it's been done before. i've seen a pic before, and i've seen one in person. it doesn't really help with gas flow; its more of a cosmetic thing. IMO it looks pretty awsome.

                I think it would just help with recharge. Think about it, I mean, you have two lines each pressurized to say...800 psi running into the gun. Then, you would have twice the air, making it fill up the reg faster. I think that is the only advantage, and that might not even be true. Thats just my 2 cents.

                  The macro isn't the main restriction of flow... The tank reg is the main limiter of recharge...

                    just this past sunday i saw the dual-airlined mag again, and i had my camera. but it never crossed my mind to get a pic.
                    i'v mentioned the gun i saw on here before, and many people found it interesting, but nobody could find any pictures. next time i see it, i'll be sure to get a pic; and i'll post it here on AO.
