Grab either a Regulator or an Expansion Chamber.  Palmers is top-of-the-line for CO2, and it works well with HPA if you have it.  They run (I believe) around 70$.  If thats too much, an alternative would be to pick up a X-Core 8 stage expansion.  Its only 20$ and does EXTREMELY well. What does an expansion chamber do?


With both of those your gonna need a Vertical Adapter...easy enough.

Purchase some Macroline with some 90* fittings , or purchase another sized steel-braided hose, because now your gonna have to run your air from your ASA (Air Source Adapter) to your Reg/Expansion.  Once you've done all that, you'll have a nicely balanced Custom, and to top it off, it will be quite efficent as well.  Translate that first sentence to Noobish. >.>

While your buying goodies, don't forget a new barrel....(I <3 Lapco Bigshots) I'm thinking of getting that J&J ceramic barrel when I can, but I'll look into the Bigshots too.

Well, it's official. My parents have picked up my present. The Custom Pro, ofcourse.

And in related news, one of my friends just offered to sell his J&J ceramic barrel for $25 US plus shipping.

thas fine tghe reason i suggested the 12'' is becuz like i say oin every forum its just less to have poking out or between u and the dodrito that ur hiding behind, but if you were doing a friend a favor by buying there's i'd get a fren's 14'' rather than ebay's 12, plus no shipping!

one of my "friends" sucks at selling stuff like that......ok he bought 2000 rounds of paint, and i asked if i could use a hopper full.....so he was like you can if you pay me $4....for one hopper.....i its only 200 rounds....and if he asked for a hopper full i wouldnt let him pay me, ide be a friend......ok so sorry about that.................anyway like i said above there really isnt a difference in the 14 and the 12

Well, I used a hopper-full of paint today. Had quite a few breaks in the barrel. And I wasn't pleased with the noise or recoil.

HOWEVER. I love the double trigger, the butt plate, and the accuracy.

And Jester, shipping will be added to the cost. He lives in Florida. I don't.

o o wel its still a good deal. and the breaks were probably from the combo of the stock abrrel and breaking in the gun. after a couple games it will work fine. well it should anyways.

Just finished getting the velocity at a good level. No more shots veering off to the right or left. Now, I hit where I aim. :)

if u got the custom pro like i did, i reccomend buying a centre feed kit from Rufus Dawg, should eliminate chopping, and buy a palmers male stabilzer! those two combined will make your tippy awsome!

to get the most out of those upgrades, u need to modify your trigger so u can walk it fast and smoothly, and the e-grip.

heres a pretty accurate price quote for those two upgrades at the top:       Rufus Dawg Center Feed Kit "$49.95"

              Palmers Male Stabilizer Kit "$100"

total cost for awsome upgrade = $150!!!!!
