Is there anything that will tread into the hole in front of the gun (next to aoc cap) that will take a gauge? It seems like you could thread something in with a 90 degree and add a gauge to it so you can read your lpr.

I have a 2.2 side switch mephy with edwin's lprc (and it is sweet/thanks edwin) any other mods would not matter...right? I have a hyper2 hpr with a gauge (will replace it with a 300psi) but I would like to get my lpr down as low as I can. It shoots sweet right now with the hyper2 around 175 and the lpr is set @ whatever edwin shipped it @! shoots my tank down to nothing. In fact my last time out when I took off my tank (after a 20-30 round volley) I heard a leak, but it was so low it was leaking out around the pin!!!!

i have seen the mod done to an imp were they drilled in the back and put a gauge in but i think it would be extremely dificult,

Well I guess I will just have to do it with a barb and hose and gauge. I just wanted to leave it on if I could. Do you know which hose fits the barb? 1/16? And does the guage need a fitting?

i thinbk its the 1/16 edwin sells them i have no idea on the gauge though i have an idea how tho put a gauge on the body but you would have to get your gun sent to warped

I think it can be done, I have it done to my python imp's Vertical Adaptor but the gauge is too big to accurately read my lpr pressure, it would involve tapping for the gauge but I'm sure if anyone could do it, Edwin or Warped could do it, pm them since they haven't posted here yet.

if you drill into the back of the body and tap it you cqan get a eadding of pressure going into the noid put i dont think you will be able to use a backplate any more or you would have to mod it

I already have the barb from Edwin, just need to get the 1/16 hose and a gauge. But what do I need to get the hose hooked to the gauge?
