    N/A Regulator Pressure versus FPS Curve?

    Just wondering if anyone has plotted reg pressure versus FPS increase. Assuming you eliminate hammer I assume there is a sweet spot for reg pressure where you are maximizing air per unit of FPS. Like if you are at 150Bar and 900 FPS and you raise to 160 BAR ou get 940 FPS and you raise to 170...

    Vevor Compressor Failure - Any idea

    So my compressor stopped working properly.. 5-months old. It will fill but very slowly and then when I turn it off it depressurizes, so I think there is a leak somewhere and I have this brown residue shooting out of the bleed valve. Any clue? I contacted Vevor for warranty, and initially...

    AEA Magazine Upgrade for Challenger / PRO / HP

    As most of you guys are aware AEA suffers from not so great Magazines.. I recently got the AEA Challenger PRO LB in 30cal and my stock magazines were really bad.. They would fall out if the gun was uncocked and tilter on its side.. Very frustrating.. I contacted a local company and they made /...

    AEA Pellets and Speed versus JSB, etc.

    Im curious now that these have been out if there is a consensus on good target speed. Traditional thinking from what i have seen is that pellets should be fired 880-890-900 speed(ish) This makes sense as past Mach 0.8 you run into stability and drag issues and with a projectile that is drag...

    N/A On board Regulator Pressure and Tank Fill Pressure Question

    Curious.. Are the regulators in most guns sensitive to fill pressure.. Lets say REG is set to 2500PSI and was set when tank had 3000PSI in it. IF you now fill the tank to 4500PSI will the REG still be set to 2500PSI.. Not sure exactly how the REGs work IS it an offset or its an absolute...
