For one take off the reg it is not needed.Originally posted by don miguel"The Few Who Do Are The Envy Of The Many Who Only Stand And Watch"

with or with out paint? you will shoot off a lot more air dry firing it than if u run paint through it.
u can put a softer bolt spring in and then take down the velecioty adjuster to get it back to a low enough fps but it might be harder on the paint.

In short not really. Efficiency is going to be the same for the most part.Originally posted by don miguel"The Few Who Do Are The Envy Of The Many Who Only Stand And Watch"

using level 7 will help.
And double as a blender...Comment

what does a lvl 7 do, is it cheaper and easier too install than a lvl 10.Originally posted by behemothComment

Dont get level 7. Just get a bigger tank, or get it filled more often.
Its not THAT bad.Comment

Level 7 was bolt used for the past 10 years before the level 10. Its simple to install and will never need adjusted, but it will chop. It is slighly more efficent then the level 10 but not enough for you even really to notice.Originally posted by don miguelComment

I get a good two hoppers (180 rounds each) and about a pod and a half (150 round) so an estamate of a total of 500 shots out of a PURE ENERGY 48 cu 3000psi tank. when the manual says 700 shots out of a 9 oz. WHAT IS WRONG! is that normal?Originally posted by fire1811Comment
