I'm going to be buying a brand new A-5 soon, but I want to get an x-chamber for it. People have told me the palmers instead. I would like to know how much the palmers is, and would I have to order it online? If I had to order online, I might not be able to. Don't you just love parents?  The price might also be a problem because I'm on a bit of a tight budget right now. I'll be using it several times before it gets warm again, depending on my friends. I would also like to conserve C02 and I heard x-chambers and stabalizers are the way to go. Thanks in advance.------------- 98% of all kids have tried some kind of drugs by the age of 13.

Pick up a used stock autococker regulator off some kid on PBNation that thinks he has to upgrade. They work great with co2.

Ok thanks, but I didn't say this clearly in my first post. I needed to ask if i should get an x-chamber for now, or if the palmers was that much better. If I saved for the palmers, I'd still get a barrel and prolly a trigger up before I would get it. If i went for the x-chamber, I'd prolly get it after the barrel. It would also be months until I'd get the palmers. So let me know what you think, and, once again, thanks in advance. ------------- 98% of all kids have tried some kind of drugs by the age of 13.

The male palers stabilizer is alot better than any x chamber. Dont waste your money on an x chamber save it all up and then buy a male palmers stabilizer -------------

you might as well order the "Palmer Stabilizer kit for Tippmann A-5". That is the male Palmers Stabilizer regulator w/90 degree elbow, and the 9" steel braided gas line included. All this for only ...... $96 + shipping/handling.  ------------- A5 Rfs Dwg triggr Ricochet R5 8"Lapco Bigsht/14"CP Classic Palmers Stab.

| The fact of the matter is that your Tippmann will work just fine using CO2 without an expansion chamber OR a regulator (which is what a Stabilizer is). Both x-chambers and regulators will help increase your shot consistancy, and prehaps and increase your shots per tank somewhat. It's mostly a choice of how much money you want to spend on it. |
