Why ditch the lpr?

The trigger is quiet compared to the nd on my other impulse but I don't like it as much.

I'm estimating 1700 shots per fill and a rock bottom operating pressure of 130 without the lpr. I don't want the headaches of an lpr.  It's hitting ebay next week.

thanks for the comments

wait a sec, what tank are you using thats going to get you 1700 shots?  and you really should keep the lpr, it will keep you from having FSDO and will make it more efficient

fsdo is overrated.  Many cases of fsdo can be attributed to too much lube between the hammer and the hammer assembly causing the hammer to stick to the assembly.  Otherwise a tape worm will take care of the rest.  A stock Cricket board seems to have better efficiency than the eq board.  It's unexplainable for the most part.  My certified sp tech buddy feels it has something to do with the dwell and rof.

The hammer on this gun is a titanium hammer which is lighter than the rathole but less efficient. 

My best guess at this point, without having shot the gun yet is 1700 per 68/4500 and 2000 on 20 oz. c02.  This is with jacked up psi 180 and a low dwell.

This is what I get on my eq boarded impulse which for me is plenty efficient.  To me the lpr is just an unneeded hassle.

I get good, but i dont know how much, never think of watching the gauge when i play

i have an 88/45 with NDZ interals, with normal vision board, think i get that much?

During the course of a day of play how much paint do you shoot and how many times do you refill?
