Maybe you should've asked this before you bought it? ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

I wasn't being nasty, just pointing out the obvious thing to do before purchasing something. Well, it's going to allow your gun to operate at a lower pressure. It reduces the kick some as well. Other than that, I have no real experience with them. EDIT: http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/2637/ - http://www.pbreview.com/products/reviews/2637/ ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.)

they really dont do much for it in all honesty. You wont notice a big differenc in efficiency (if any), the kick is barely reduced, and its still pretty loud, also the accuracy is about the same. ------------- Stay low, run fast, and hope that paintball doesn't hit your... http://www.deltasquad.info/">

| I found it made a large difference in my A5. Along with Techt cyclone upgrades and the LPK i was able to bring my operating pressure down (250-300psi). Kick was noticebly reduced and i could shoot a few pods more using the same tank. Old setup would stop working below 1000 in tank. New setup would still work below 500 in tank. I might even get the Techt Zero Kick hammer. (possibly increase my efficientcy even more). Now the only problem i've come across is in cold weather i had to use a stronger spring. |
