Spent most of today dinking around with my new (to me) Angel...thought I had it dialed in until I put it to the chronograph. It's relatively consistent shot to shot, with some drops from the 280's into the 250's and 260's...anyways, what concerns me is the input pressure. As it sits, it shoots in the 280's with about 435 psi going into the gun, with the MROF at 20 and the dwell set at 16. I'm using ZAP Tork going through a CP Pro barrel, and a Dynaflow tank and Hyperinline reg. The gun itself is a 2k1 Fly Angel that has seen little use. It has dual volumizers and a DYE Bolt. It has about 50K shots on the counter. The people who owned it before me used it as a backup to a backup, so it's sat ALOT. When I got it I had to charge it overnight because the battery had never been fully charged. I took a teammate's advice and got an Egg for it...the gun shoots VERY fast...it'll have to get the trigger reworked a little because it's just a bit TOO bouncy. It wouldn't have made it past the refs at IAO if they tried that bounce test thing they were doing. Any thoughts you guys could give would be severely appreciated

The pressure might be that way if the LPR is a bit too low, but honestly an HPR of 435 is perfectly normal. Angels are by no means low pressure guns and I wouldn't worry about it at all. The trigger bounce can be fixed by putting a stiffer spring in there. You can either stretch out the spring that's in there or put a new one in. Lengthening the pull a bit might help too. I don't think the input is too big of a deal.

shouldn't be too worried....normal is about 500 to 550 (550 being ideal) if it's running at 280 that good enuff really, tourney legal and all that.... you can just set the trigger yourself if you use the manual to get rid of the bounce....
