hey


Now HPA tanks have a regulator and in my case the HPA tank will be putting out 800 psi. And when it goes into my gun it should shoot with in the same range of fps right ? So if its with in a 5 fps range (if thats how it will work) Then is there a point to get a regulator ?

Or even with a HPA tank will it be shooting in a much large range, say with in a 15 fps range ?

When it comes to pressure and regs im usually confused so please help me out.

Thanks

Regulators Help it so you wont have Any Chrno. Spikes but that rarley happens with HPA but when it does it goes up quite a bit, they also help keep your PSI out put lower.  They only HPA Tank that I can think of that Doesn't Require a Regulator is 'Evil Scion Air' Other then that I think all of them do.

secondary regs help get rid of shootdown and give better consistancy over the chornograph.
