Palmer regulator

Hey guys,
I'm looking into getting a Palmer regulator for my 98 custom. Not sure which one to get though. I think what I need to do is get the vertical adapter and then buy the male regulator, but i want to keep my grip. The other option is to get the female that goes down by the tank. Does anyone know the way to go? I really want to get the Lapco T-stock set link will i still be able to use the female stabilizer down there? Here's the link to Palmer's any help would be greatly appreciated. Palmers

Thanks,
Daniel

Well, both setups will give you the same desirable results, so the only difference between them is the feel of the marker. If you like the front grip, then the option you might prefer would be to put a female reg and use it as your bottomline. But, you will not be able to use the female stab with the Lapco stock that you linked. You could look into other stocks, or you could take another approach.

You should look into a Palmers Direct Stabilizer. They are the same as a male, but instead of ASA threads on the top output, they have 1/8" NPT threads, the same as in your valve. This stab would just screw into your valve but would require some modification to the receivers of the gun so the stab can get up and into the valve. Another similar option is to use a Palmers ASA Adapter and mod that up into your valve and then you can use a male stabilizer with it. These last two options will put the reg in between the trigger guard and the front grip, where your air line enters the valve now.

If you need anymore information, a good website to visit is www.model98.org. I am a moderator there and we have lots of members with a wealth of information on Tippmanns. There are also lots of pictures that you can base your setup on if you are wondering what something specific looks like.

Don't know what your ambition is, but I mounted this direct stabilizer right to the valve, and milled away the body to let it fit. You could be creative with a direct or inline stab and some air fittings.

Will you be running remote or air on gun?

If you are running remote you could just get a male Stab and screw it into the ASA on the T-stock.
