    What tank reg?

    Ok, I know that the general consensus is that centerflag ajustables and max flows are the best tank regs for mags. However, I want a screw in but am unsure about the quality of the PEs at the local pb shop. I am currently looking at the myth and cp regs. I have a pneumag so that is why i am not as conserned about reactivity.
    any thoughts?

    The next best thing is cross fire or guerilla air at the moment. Nitroduck is in limbo, Centerflag disappeared and I can't really recommend smart parts as a principle.

        The Myth is REALLY short so unless your asa sticks out the back so to speak you will have trouble threading it in. GREAT reg for the price.
        Crossfire regs are nice.

          so would you say that it can keep up with a mag ok? Also, my local store owner says that "A pure energy can keep up with an ego at 40bps" but I have heard that PEs are not that good with mags, so who is right?

            The Myth Reg outputs at 650PSI so it might not be a great choice for a mag.

                I got an e-mail from GA in December 2007 stating that their high pressure Myth regs output 800-850psi.

                  Well nobody I know has a Myth that is anything but 650PSI. They are considered mid pressure. I will e-mail GA tomorrow to see if things have changed.

                    I have had a lot of luck with my Crossfire hp regs. I have a flatline 4500 and some old AA stuff. The CF is just as consistent (completely subjective: not actually tested), just not adjustable.

                        The Centerflag Hyperflow reg is excelent, if you hunt around for one you can still get them. They have one of the highest flow rates if not the highest flow rate of any reg. You'll be able to bounce the trigger all day long!!! There's still on available here...



                        Far more relaible than a PE reg. In 6 years of ownership my reg has never once given me any troulbe. In fact Tomahawk sell them as a rebranded reg. Mine worked a real treat in my Pnuemag until i moved over to an adjustable reg.

                          i have not enjoyed my PE reg when i put on my x mag but i havent tried using that gun sinc i bought my centerflag and crossfire... i will say this though the PE regs are just not up to the same quality as the crossfire and centerflags

                          on a side note it really is a shame centerflag dissovled.
                          VV04962 yeah thats my Pewter CnC X-mag

                            Get a Crossfire or Centerflag 420. The PE regs blow...

                              A quick note on PE quality, I lurked on Angel owners for a while and still ocasionally do. Those guns require a low output tank do to the design of the HPR. Some people were experiencing dammage and inconsistancy in their guns when using PE low pressure regs. They put the reg on an asa with a gadge just to check and some of the regs were getting in the range of 700-1000 psi output...when they were and are listed at 450psi output. That has been a regular problem for them and it's made me never want to buy their products again.

                              I have a crossfire, great price, amazing flow. Only complaint is that the gadge in the regulator is gigantic...to the point that I have to slide my rail ASA off my drop to screw it in then re-mount the ASA because the gadge hits the drop and won't screw in. Granted I use a CP micro razor...so it's not a large drop...and requires the user to remove the fill nipple cover at the very least with any reg. I've been looking to replace the reg with a centerflag but....they are AWOL, maybe I'll just pay some airsmith to change the gadge to something smaller...or gurilla air something.
