    Nitro question

    Newbie question, probably been asked before, please no flames!!

    I have an older smart mini-mag (no stars on valve). Has only been run on CO2. I am getting a pmi 68/4500 preset tank this week. I have a standard duck bill bolted on bottom of grip and a macro line to the valve. Is there anything else besides a drop forward that i need? Is so, what.

    Second question, does anyone have recommendations for a drop forward that they really liked for a combo like this? thanks in advance for your advice.

    You should not need any thing else for the nitrogen to work.
    As for a drop foward, I have the same tank you are getting, and I am useing the TKO drop foward. It does an awesome job balancing the marker. It is 30 bucks at paintballgear.com

      I use an adjustable output tank but Ive seen some nice drops that have the asa built in for $22 thats what you should look for as for other upgrades I'd switch to steel braided with a proconnect at the valve they are exspensive $50 but their so nice they dont leak and you can disconnect them and they Don't let air out due to a ball bearing that stops it other wise just a regular slide QD $6 and braided maybe A slide check too oh and a new parts kit if its been run on co2 the O-rings are probly in bad shape

          It works just like the CO2 bottle you are use to. You don't need to do anything special. BTW, there really aren't any changes you can make to the tank.

          As for a drop forward, my brother has the 3000psi tank and he hase the PMI drop forward w/asa. he likes it.
