Nitro Duck X-stream. Anyone own one? Comments please.

**redlaser666** · 01-27-2003, 09:25 AM

I have an X-stream, its is a 68/4500. So far it has worked very well, it ajust from almost 0 (doesn't shut off completly) to about 825psi. I have not notice shotdown in neither the auto coker(250psi) or the retro mag. It is just as light as any preset that i have held.

Bought mine from compulsive paintball for $250.

Hope that helps, if you have any other questions e-mail me [email protected]

I have one on the way! Have heard great things about them. I got it from FREE FLOW for 249.00. Drop Zone paintball list them for 224.00. I just got it from free flow cuz they back thier stuff.

I had one, didn't like it. The output pressure fluctuated a little and it wouldn't go over about 850psi.

Thanks all, keep the input coming.

Shirow: What kind of marker were you using and did you feel the need to go over 850psi to get the most from it?

Thanks

Probably a Retro Valve.

That's what i'm wondering, because I'm considering this air system for my X-mag. Do I need over 850?

No you don't need anything over 600psi going into a mag regulator, however if you ever want to play in retro mode without the electronic's you will probably want adjustable reg that can go that high to fine tune the reactiveness of your trigger in retro mode.

But a alot people use standard preset tanks on thier retro mags and find the trigger to be suffiently reactive it's all about a person personal preference.

Mine is on a retro micromag and it is plenty reactive. Mine is set to 800psi.

Thanks again guys!

Anyone else?

You may want over 850 for level 10. To get things lighter on the paint, you use a longer spring. That requires a higher pressure.

**pito189** · 01-28-2003, 07:47 PM

I put 600-650psi into my E-Mag, with LX, and I can shot 2-3 bounce paint usually 3-4 times before it breaks. I only use my gun in E-Mode though, so I don't care about reactivness.

Doobie,

hey and pito has hit you a couple times with that set up!!! Nothing but love.

ROTFLMAO! Yea, that is right.

I'm trying to do something about that 40lb gun without spending $300+ on an air system.

BTW , Chris, pito said you guys are practicing this Sunday at RR. I saw his web site and was thinking I could come and take pics of you guys playing for the SS site. LMK.

We will be there, come out with the camera, I will have mine, and we can take tons of pictures.
