An anti-siphon is something that you install into your CO2 tank to reduce sucking up liquid. Do NOT install one yourself. It is basically a bent straw that is bent to fit the ASA so that it is facing up to the gas.

it is a tube that goes into ur c02 tank to prevent the liquid c02 from going into the gun, it acts as a expansion chamber would, however does not fully work. you can purchase one, but I would have a airsmith or someone who knows what they are doing install it in the tank for you, and be sure the tank is completly empty while doing so, duhh.

even with a 8 stage xchamber, and a anti syphon tube, and a remote all working, there will still be that little bit of liquid c02 going into the gun, which is bad for orings.
