    Anyone make a good adjustable HPA anymore?

    Before Nitroduck went out they did the I-reg.....but does anyone offer a true adjustable output, high output reg anymore?

    I am leary to buy a used Centerflag, just because I feel like parts will be getting hard to find. Pretty much the same deal with any of the old AA's that are still running around.

    I would like to find something that can be turned up to 1200PSI max output.

    Dude...unless you lose something, any of the old SP or AA reg part aren't going to go bad. Worst case scenario is you have to change out a packing.

    But as for you question...I can't recall anyone making one ATM. What marker that's still being manufactured needs an adj HP reg? None that I can think of and is probably the reason why there aren't any being made.

      I've got an old centerflag regulator that I want to swap out for a ninja reg at some point, so if you want you can pick it up. I picked it up recently and used it a couple times and it works good. I haven't had a chance to hook it up to my RT yet, so I can't comment on how high it can go because I've been using it at ~550 PSI in my intimidator.

        I am trying to avoid the giant manifold Max Flow. And as I say, AA's are just getting pretty old. Good regs and all....It is a shame that the flatline is so big, they at least, have parts available.

          hey...some guys just left a centerflag at my field....I didn't know it was adjustable. Somehow the pin won't let the air out tho. So once I have that problem solved I'll have a nice new reg to put on the mag. Awesome.

          I'm gonna have to track that down and put dibs on it now.
          Anyone know how to get 3k psi out of a tank without using the pin valve? :P

                I agree, go for a flatline. I've been running mine for about 6 years and all I've had to replace is the reg seat.

                It's been great, very consistent.

                  It's the same parts as a mag reg on a valve, right? Gotta love one stop shopping...

                    There are a few other things you have to pick up but it's fairly similar, yeah. I just used an o-ring out of my flatline parts kit to replace my on/off o-ring last weekend

                      The only adjustable reg in current production I know of is the Ninja. It's not infinitely adjustable on the fly, but it works.

                        I don't think it's in production, and I've seen a few floating around, but how is the MacDev Conquest?

                          You should be able to slightly loosen the fill nipple and have it start leaking. DO NOT loosen it much.

                          Not all Centerflags are adjustable, they made fixed regs too.

                              If it looks like this: http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/630/ or this: http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/313/ (the one that I have) then its a centerflag adjustable tank.
