a better tank since the tank you have will run dry fast,then a hopper an egg will work but if you want faster get a halo,then feedneck,trigger,qev,reg if you want. also get a better harness |

Also a QEV is a good thing to have.

^ Not from what I hear. What is supposed to be wrong with the reg.? I've heard that it's actually nice. Inconsistancy would be my guess. |

^^^ It has drop off at high rates of fire. Also the QEV will lower your dwell time to around 6-7(stockis 50 is believe) and will supposedly increase the life of your noid. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

I say that you need a new reg and the qevs then work on on the trigger and a new bolt.
