ego + CP reg

[Samwell]

am i right in assuming that a CP reg will just screw into place on an o5 ego?

and if so is this a decent idea considering my regs not great, or are there better aftermarket regs available/anywhere to buy the star reg?

cheers sam

Yep it will fit straight in its place

Whats wrong with your reg? The 05's are decent regs in the first place imo better than the CP ones.

im not rerally sure whats up with it its just isnt as consistant as id like it to be i guess

i had a go with a DM the other day and found it ridiculously more consistant so just lookin to improve on mine really

ego regs are a good bit ok kit very consistent other than cosmetic no reason to change,, have you serviced your reg ?

 

[Samwell]

yeah i clean it regularly

im thinking il send it to planet for a full service tbh

You can get star regs from planet... Have you taken the shims out? I have heard that this can damage consistancy.

Do you actually know what you are talking about?

Do you actually know what you are talking about?

It would apear not, removing the shims is part of standard reg teching.

What sort of lube are you using out of interest mate?

The star reg has exactly the same internals the only difference is milling and a swivel.

How old is the reg/marker?

You cannot say, "i think my reg is poopered because I tried a DM and that was way more consistent"...it's a different marker

Inconsistency, if it is your reg can be caused by the o-rings, if they are worn...or, the Reg piston seal. The piston seal, is the black bit on the end of the stem of the piston and cant be changed.
Get a Piston kit from Planet, change the pistons in your LPR and HPR and all the o-rings and try that.
It can also be the valve seat, which is what the valve slides in and out of...if its worn...it will cause inconsistency.
