Best On/Off ASA? - Page 3

glim69 · 07-02-2011, 12:20 PM

my votes in order

the pe oops.
pros: it's just awsome, great design, nob is easy to turn with gloves on and paint everywhere, and comes with a rail.
cons: the rail sucks if you have a short reg on your tank (works fine just would be offset and not lined up unless you turn rail around), only comes in dust black

dp on/off
pros: looks great, small, leverl works great and never had a problem, comes with rail
cons: haven't had any.
i'm not sure if you can find them in colors but i got a used ego6 that has a blue dp on/off on it.

cp (direct mount)
pros: looks great, not too big (imo), multipal colors, nob doesn't unscrew off.
cons: the nob is more slick and not as easy to grip if paints on it, i don't think the cp dove tail model comes with a rail (someone can correct me if wrong).

over all i like the pe oops, because i have a star frame on my cocker now and it has a built in rail so everything lines up nice now and i like the how slim it is over the dp.

Glim,

What do you mean by the OOPs being offset/not lined up if using a short tank reg, unless you flip the rail?

Not following on that score.

But again, do appreciate all the input here.

The T-rail the oops uses is sort of a mini drop forward. If you use a shorter tank reg like a myth your gauge will hit the rail. Thus you have to turn it around.

the rail that comes with the oops is like a mini drop forward and not a perfect rectangel like most rails. if you mount the oops to it's rail with the back of the on/off lined up with the flat spot on the rail, if you have a short tank reg (ninja/myth) the gauge hits the rail. so you would have to slide the on/off back a little on the rail (making in off set) unless you turn the rail around (drop backwords) which i don't like the look.

hope this makes sence.

ninja regs work fine with the OOPS,only myth regulator or crossfire regs hit it.

glim69 · 07-03-2011, 02:38 AM

my ninja and my myth regs hit it unless the oops is off set to the rail.

Out of those options, CP.

But I would also say Bob Long Gear Drive or Cam Drive as "best ever".

Glim and Robbie,

Thanks kindly. That is most helpful, indeed.

SD.Pump · 07-03-2011, 03:06 PM

CP or Empire Nano on off.

hmmm that is weird,I have a 45/45 with one of the newer style regulators with two orings and it works fine. Is your gauge hitting your frame or the rail?
