Hi everyone.

Never had any experience with HPA but I am about to order myself a mancraft SdIk. It seems to me like it would be the best route to getting consistent FPS (instead of spring powered, as I'd need to upgrade a lot of parts. With the SdIk I can just "drop it in" and be done with it). I don't want to use a tank and a line, so I am looking more into using Co2 cartridges.

I have read a lot of the posts in this thread (and some reviews elsewhere) and apparently you need a good regulator if you want good results with Co2. A lot of people suggested this setup;

-Palmer Female regulator with
12 gram quick change adapter.

However I have seen this 12 gram regulator on the palmer website and I am wondering if it could be a good option. This looks like it could do the job and could possibly be smaller too.

Thanks

0-600 is too high. Unless you can change the internal spring to get in the 0-200psi range it may be too sensitive to adjustment, plus over 200psi you'll damage the sdik and run the risk of blowing the nylon air line that feeds it. Check with Palmer, because if the maximum pressure can be dropped out looks like a neat solution. Mind you, there's nothing wrong with the Mancraft regulator /adaptor.

Having tried the mancraft and spring, I can tell you that co2 doesn't even come close to spring when it comes to consistency.
My advice, don't waste your money and time.
