1) tape, i use it cause i dont want to scratch my barrel, and it lowers the glare of the barrel too. i'v been "Spotted" during a night game cause the moon light was shinging off my barrel. 2)reg would be nice, but i dont have any money. can someone tell me whats a good one, and then tell me whats a cheap one. i dont want to get the low comp. cause parts break under high rates of fire. 3) remote. i use a remote only when i play woods. but when i play speedball i hook up my Fat Ass tank to the gun cause the coil limits my flexibility with my gun. ------------- Tippmann A-5 Flatline E-grip w/jcs blade Lapco SAW stock R-5 Ricochet Hopper GTA Expantion Chamber DF adapter block Dead on paintball Dropforward w/ on-off & gauge |

with a tippmann... you don't need a reg as long as your tank is a high
pressure output tank. just take the x-chamber off, it's only
hurting the air flow. |

A Palmers stabalizer. Best there is for C02, and in the top 4 for HPA
regs. Not much point in getting a cheap reg. Remember you get what you
pay for.

A Palmer would be good...
Oh yeah BTW NICE GUN! I really like the stock alot. And the electric tape on the flatline is pretty cool (I'm being serious). All you cynical brats need to go home now, I think your momma's calling. -------------

put an old black sock over the barrel and cut the toe part off because the tape looks tacky. Well, not like an old sock covering a flatline wouldn't either, but i think it would just look cooler. I like it, but you should get a smaller hose......... ------------- X |
