| Get a high pressure tank (usually 800-850psi) FYI, you don't need anything else to use a high pressure HPA tank. |

High pressure. A regulator is highly recomended, but not necesarry. Also, keep in mind that unlike other markers, the A5's ability to feed depends on the amount of gas it gets, so low pressure is probably a bad idea. Ps. Love the Opsgear front grip, how well does it work? ------------- "If you make it idiot proof, they'll make a better idiot." http://www.tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=125287&PN=1&TPN=1 - REQUIRED READING |

Definitely high pressure, but I would not call a secondary regulator "highly recommended." Some additional benefit, but not a big deal. You may want to try without the x-chamber, though, if the gun starts acting kooky. Some people report inconsistent velocities using nitro with x-chambers. Most people don't have any problems. Good luck.
