    Posted: 06 November 2006 at 1:18pm

Im currently using a Tippmann A5 with mainly stock parts, polished internals, a plamer inline stabilizer and HPA. Making some final decisions about the LPK.

Q1: I have a HPA tank and have read forums here thats talk about high pressure and low pressure tanks. Does it make a difference?

Q2: Now that I'll have a LPK, when I already use a plamer inline stabilizer; should I still keep both on my set up or just use the LPK?

Thanks for your time

1. Yes it does. If there was no difference, there wouldn't be two options.

2. What are you using as your HPR?

Q1: Stocks Tippmanns are high pressure guns I believe. Since you now have a LPK you can use either high output or low output tanks.

Q2: You will have to keep using your Stab. The LPL requires you to have a secondary regulator.

Correct me if I am wrong anyone.

EDIT: Warning. I may not know what I am talking about.

Yes there is a difference between high and low output tanks, however you will be fine due to the Palmers reg you have. LPKs need a regulator. all you will need to do is convert your Inline to have male standard ASA threading on the output and it will go right into the LPK. since you will have the Palmers Inline, its fine that you have a High pressure output tank, the Inline will bring it down to where the LPK requires. you dont need a new tank.

so in the end, all you would have to do is buy a peice like this
\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/


you just get a couple extension peices to put on the output side of the Inline and then put this^^^^ on the end of it and it will work wonderfully

or if you run your setup as a remote system and just have a Quick disconect nipple that you put into your ASA normally, just put that into the LPK and it will work wonderfully.

the two above things are just suggestions while guessing about how you have the inline reg setup. if I could see a pic of it that would be nice to see how you have it setup, that way I could suggest the best way to hook it up for your specific needs. I searched in the marker galary for any pics of your gun by seaching under your user name but didnt see any.
