| So on the forums i remember hearing that remotes have a slight effect of letting CO2 expand in it, is this true and could it be a $12 1 stage x-chamber? |

| Yes it is true. Remember the "X" stands for expansion , the length of hose gives the CO2 room to expand. That being said I believe an actual X-chamber does a better job. Also if you are using the remote line and are lying in Wait for an opponent , liquid CO2 can still enter the marker do to the fact that your in a horizontal position. |

Yes, the remote line will help with the liquid CO2. Personally, it has helped me out alot. It will also take the weight of the tank off of your marker. ------------- NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil. |

Ok then, so its a cheap step up from no expansion chamber, but without having to install new hoses and such

I was considering about hpa but decided to get a nice tank later on rather than a cheap, steel 48cm tank right now ------------- 98c 14" progressive barrel double trigger thats it... |

not to get off the subject too much, but where can you find them for $12. the only ones i've seen are those extra special , rediculously priced, $50 lines at the local, (only shop in 2hr drive in-state) shop. thanks ------------- 98 custom... custom camo airbrushing, 32 deg. drop forward, x-chamber, R/T, double trigger, rear velocity adjuster, psycho-b. starfire bolt, tippmann 12in.sniper....gotcha! |

well on ebay if you look aroun for like a week you can always buy one for about 20 bucks or less.... I get all my stuff straight from the factory. a couple of summers ago 10 of my friends wanted to buy tippmanns and stuff so i just sined up to be a dealer and since the requirement was to make a big purchase the 10 tippys helped on that.. i got mine from the factory for 12 bucks...

You can get remotes on Ebay for 12 bucks all the time. Problem is they are microline and very cheaply made. A friend of mine purchased one and the valve wouldnt even screw all the way on to the tank and the hose leaked from both of the push on fittings ------------- A5 rampage board, Rampage trigger, Flatline, Qloader |
