I must praise WDP, not just because they sponsor the team, but for the fact that the do tech courses for anyone who want to learn about servicing an Angel marker. There you go proper training. Why is there not the same for other markers

Fair point Eric. In my opinion a little knowledge is a dangerous thing :) Thinking your a tech and being one are two different things :) Kudos to WDP for letting peope have the insight of how things work and at least trying to give people the opportunity to learn how to do things the right way...

I've taken an Inferno apart and a Spyder, but now am I taking any thing off my either of my Autocockers except the barrel or the bolt without training. Just means Planet has to suffer me calling in with silly little problems that take a min to diagnose and fix. Damn good those Planet Boys and Girls you know

Jose, how come you haven't tried them yet..???
if the reg fails, then the gas goes somewhere........I'm not sure which would be worse yet........ plastic hose or marker internals.. can't really find any data on which would cause more damage. We insist on goggles at the fill station too.

Jose, good point, but if you use inferior products that are not suitable for the job they're doing, isn't this a worse case scenario than the chance a reg will pass 4500psi. Jose does your marker not have vent holes on each stage of regulation, like an Angel. Surely the air reg has, and most lprs have.
The fittings that are currently being used are technically illegal, if a Health and safety officer took a look at this there would be chaos.
