Take it to your local proshop and have them put one on. DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT install it yourself. Only a licensed air smith should do it. . .no one wants soccer moms to throw a fit and out law paintball after more co2 tanks explode/

The c02 tanks didn't explode. The tank was just unscrewed from the valve and shot off like a rocket and hit someone in the head killing them.

Wow.... How long were you been playing with CO2 before HPA?

yep, you just gotta make sure you always have the tube going up when its screwed, or else all you get is liquid.

Hybrid showed it there.  It just makes sure you gun doesn't suck up liquid CO2 and it only takes the gas.  You can get gun freezups(sp) and it won't function properly.

Or if you want to keep CO2 I would highly recommend getting an X-Chamber.

Stabalizers are better than x-chambers.
