An expansion chamber is used to break down your guns liquid c02 faster and better. It changes the liquid co2 into gases in the chamber! Therefore making your guns accuracy and consistency far better! A regulator regulates your c02 or nitro! A good reg for c02 is the palmer stabilizer! ------------- New Black Matrix. |

A regulator can be used for Co2 or HPA, IF you have
a Co2 tolerant reg, like the Palmer Stabilizer... A regulator is far better for your gun, because an expansion chamber turns Co2 into a gas only by allowing it room to expand before it gets into the gun. If your shooting really fast, this extra room my not help at all and just fill up with liquid. A regulator, like the Stab, controls the pressure inside the gun so that its is consistent, the Stab stops all the liquid Co2 from entering the gun this way. -------------
