Multi CO2 Input

Like on the VM68 and such

I understand that I will need an on/off for each co2 input, but will I need to regulate each one?

Basically will the pressure equalize when each tank is added, or will it compound? and double for each unregulated added input?

No, you will not need to regulate each on. The pressure will eventually stabalize in all of the tanks if you have them hooked up before a regulator.

I'm planning this for a phantom, I know they like co2 straight from 12 grams and tanks, do I need to have any regulation?

I usually just stick to 12grams so I havn't used any stabs or regs

Well, honestly, anything more than a 3.5 ounce tank is overkill for a phantom unless you are just using the tank as a shoulder stock. You don't need regulation, such as a Palmer's Stabalizer, but some say that it would help make the marker more consistent.

is that a gas-through double bootomline or is one of the tanks just a back up?

but that might even answer another question, if macroline can handle that, then hardlines should be fine with multi inputs too?

Macrolines can handle C02, but I don't reccomend it. Hardlines or Stainless Steel Braided lines is preferred because it can handle C02 better. Yes that is a gas through double bottom line. If you want ridiculous, you should use that setup in conjunction with a remote and a 10 ounce tank hooked up to the front of the VM.

You are better off tripple regging the marker for a 12 gram. Like a sideline stab going into a female stab, going into a male stab. That would be ridiculous.
