    Post will a vertical reg help?

    I'm wondering if it is worth it to put a reg on my classic automag if I am running a crossfire nitro tank with set output. what do you all think.

    I was told putting a third reg on your gun will cause shootdown : Tank Reg, Mag built in reg + a 3rd reg.
    So...I dont think it'd be really worth it. But maybe someone else will jump in and save the day...

    It could cause shootdown and there is no point in regulating your preset down with an standard AIR valve. It will work fine like it is.

    a standard mag valve runs at 800 to 850 psi input. most presets are somewhere around there. Putting another reg in there is just another speed bump for the air flow. I would suggest a gas thru grip foregrip, or a reg foregrip. They're cheaper anyway.
