    Flatline vs Max-Flo

    I was wondering what would be better for a 'Mag, a 68Ci 3000PSI Flatline or a 68ci 3000PSI Max-Flo? I want adjustible because I am planning to get a ReTro Valve later in life(when I win the lottery to pay for everything).

    well seeing you wrote 68ci 3000psi flatline twice I say the 68ci 3000psi flatine would be best for the mag.But considering the name and all....I still go with my first desision.The Flatline is a great tank.I own one for my RT PRO.Actually I pwn 2 but my dad uses the other.Since I bought it i'm thinking of selling it lol

      A maxflow WOULD not be a good choice. Cause maxflows are supposably "Like" two regs therefore you would be tripple regging your mag which we all no is not good which leads to drop off and "starving the valve" so i would go with:

      Hyperflow
      Dynaflow (same lighter)
      3000 or 4500 Flatline
      THOR Reg
      or
      Just any screw in would do except if your running it on an RT just dont get a 32* Tank or ACI.

        The maxflow will work fine. It is one reg not 2. it is just balanced so it does not have the creep problems that single stage regs have. I have a 68 3000 maxflow on my rt. it is all right but its big. and smart parts has about 20 different manifolds for the 3000 maxflow I would go with the flatline. it has a better on/off and is smaller and lighter.

          I have two flatlines. They work well and and AGD is awesome about support. Buy as you like.

            if you have a n2 tank, and THOR reg that would still be triple regulating....

              I know a few peoeple who have the max flow on the makers and they love them. But they do require more matinace than the flatline. With the max flow you ahve to do the proper porceedure grease it so it iwill owrk porperly. The flatline i have seen people have no problems in part otr any situation. This is my experance on this.

                If you are just going to use it on a mag, save your money and get a flatline. They are cheaper and require less mantainece. If you have plans on getting another gun like a cocker and using the same nitro, go for the max flow.

                  The maxflow isn't a 2 reg tank. Both tanks are fine. The new maxflows look sweet, but there bigger(reg) than the flatline.

                    I used a Max flow on my RT for 2 years and it worked flawless. It is a little bulky but it is one of the best systems on the market.
