CO2 rig part construction?

Basically, it goes like this:

HPA/CO2 Tank -> Regulator w/ gauge -> coiled hose -> quick disconnect -> 1/8 fitting into magazine

You could also run a smaller, secondary regulator after the main regulator.

Here's a link to a nice regulator:

If you bought that, you would need a tank, a bit of macro-line, a 1/8 fitting to go into your mag.

Here's the fitting that would work:

Of course, there are many variations of different fittings you could use. It would most likely be cheaper to build it ground up. It would also fit your needs also.

If you are a member of Classic Airsoft, there's a guy there that sells everything that you would possibly need. His rig is double regulated.

If you need any other specifics, feel free to PM me.

EDIT: If you need to know what tools are needed for tapping, all you need is a 1/8 NPT tap, a drill, and some teflon tape. Hope all of this helps some.

Tanaka M700 A.I.C.S. Its already upgraded with new seals and heavy magazine striker/impact plates as well as the KA conversion and multiple other things.

So atm the rig would look like this:
Quick change co2 adapter -> Reg. with guage -> fitting -> 2nd reg -> Straight Micro line fitting -> Macro line -> Straight Micro line fitting -> QD fitting -> 1/8 fitting into mag

Micro line with fittings would look like this?:

Would this work for the 1st reg?:

The above reg says it has dual stage does that mean it illiminates the need for 2 regs?

And the second reg is smaller? Where would I buy the 2nd reg for fine tunning? What fitting would I use from the 1st reg to the 2nd reg?

Good job on the diagram. That really helps out. It looks like the Co2 needs to be fed into the regulator from the bottom where there are male threads. I would get a 1/8 to ASA converted fitting and run it like this:

Quick change -> ASA Tank Cap -> 1/8 to ASA fitting (routed to bottom of regulator) -> Regulator -> Macro-line (out of side of regulator) -> Small A-10 Regulator -> More Macro-line -> Quick Disconnect -> Magazine

That looks to be how the regulator works. I've never personally handled that regulator though. Just make sure that the CO2 feeds into the bottom of the regulator, there's a hole on the side for a gauge, and another hole on the other side for the macro-line.

Now for the questions:

1. For the fittings to work with the macro-line, you have to buy a special fitting. It has threads on one end and on the other end, it has a slip fit that you push the macro-line into. Here's a pic of what it looks like:

2. What I said above hopefully solved/ cleared this up

3. Even with the reg being broken in, it should still have a noticeable increase in consistency of propane.

4. I think that this could be a nice compact set-up. I would still run a small A-10 regulator down the macro-line maybe to just help the consistency a bit.

I know some of this is hard to explain and gets confusing. Feel free to post more questions if you run into some other questions, or decide to change up your plan a little. Happy to help!

Thanks again wesley, but I have had another change of mind. I remeber first joining this forum and going to the gallery page. There I found a post by egalsim; it was his kjw with a super small co2 rig using a palmers rock reg. I just remembered all of this and I might do it that way since this is my first rig and atm simple is better(as long as it performs well, but its Palmers so no worry )
Here is the thread link:

The rig is aprox. 1/2 of the page down. Im still going to use the tank cap and qd co2 12g adapter that I mentioned earlier. Im using almost all Palmers parts except for QD fittings and Macro line.
I still have a few questions though:
1. Can I use this fitting as the fitting into the mag? Its 1/8 male-1/8male and then id fit a 1/8 to 10-32 female to female and then finally fit the 10-32 qd fitting.

link for 1/8 to 10-32 female: http://palmer-pursuit.com/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=31

2. The Rock reg comes with a 10-32 barb. Can I plug that into the macro line?

3. should I use this tap by palmers:

1. Yes, I would definitely recommend running a 1/8 fitting into the mag just because that's usually the standard. From there on though, the sky is the limit. There are so many different combinations of fittings and things that would be possible with these rigs. That's the beauty of building them up from scratch. One thing that I dealt with though with the elbow on my mag is that it likes to spin if if hit something or the rig gets moved around (changing CO2). I eventually just change mine out to a straight 1/8 male to 1/8 female.

2. I'm not sure what size macro-line would fit that barb, but I'm pretty sure they make a size that can. One thing I would be concerned with is the ability to put a gauge on the Rock Reg. I don't think there's a spot for one. You could use a standard Palmer's Reg and run it like this if you wanted. It would only be a tad bit larger.

Quick Change CO2 -> ASA Tank Cap -> 1/8 Elbow -> 1-8 to ASA Adapter -> Palmer's Standard Reg -> ...

I know the 1/8 Elbow and 1/8 to ASA Adapter sound funny, but if you draw it out on paper, it will make sense. These are just allowing you to have the Quick Change side-by-side with the Palmer's Reg for a lower profile (will fit in a cheek rest). You could definitaly do what egalsim did and make it smaller and easier. It might be harder to adjust pressure to your need though. A chrono would help out a lot with this build.

3. You can just get a tap from ACE hardware and drill a hole in the correct size and tap it following a guide online. This tap from Palmer's does include a tap wrench and the correct drill bit, so it would ensure that it's done correct. Depending on how well you think you could tap it, I would choose either.
