crowpopper I just got in from shooting my Bam-50 with my new shroud from Mike T. Works great and came witha money back guarantee. How can a guy go wrong with a deal like that. 😀

I haven’t had any time to play, that dam truck of mine is killing all my time right now, when I have something up and running I’ll let you all know 😉

bjay wanna make me a TEST shroud?
i will do the testing for you and you can sell them after my expert review 8)

blue jay, you should show an tell for us. I thinking it’s a nice one 😀

Mike at tko is a very nice guy, I talked with him a bit about something for the qb and then decided I wanted to play around with something on my own.

I bought one of this guy’s shroud for a Disco and it tamed it down pretty good, I was amazed actually.
Pretty cheap too.

That is one of the TKO brakes YN mentioned, then I posted about.
I love the design (and price!!)
Very much worth it and very well made.
IMO, you can not buy a better brake for anywhere close to that price, or even 2x the price:)

how would i set up a needle valve on one?
i havent looked into pcping it yet only some bulk co2 set ups
i am going to order an adjuster and valve from mtn air and a shroud from tko
by the way thanks for the link ninja its sweet

If your careful you will not blow it up and it’s not that hard. The needle valve will go between the fill tank and the gun and it will help slow down your fill process when a unregulated 4500psi tank is used. I think you will like a 2240 PCP setup more so than CO2 and many guys fill with out a needle valve.

Can’t you fill a 4500psi tank to only 3000psi or doesn’t work that way? Only a question.

i dont wanna blow it up i may just bulk it on 3.5 oz co2 tank make it safer

A paintball 4500/68 will have a reg on it so won’t work for what you want.
filling a small reservoir is a tricky and dangerous procedure.
A 3,000 psi SCUBA tank would make it less so compared to 4500 that is.

The pump advice is the safest method for filling such a small reservoir.

TKO Muzzle brakes are functional (very much so from what I’ve heard) and don’t cost much.

If I wasn’t able to make my own I’d buy one of his.

I agree 100%
I have bought a lot of 2240/2250 parts from him and they all are GREAT!!!
The prices are very reasonable, the parts are high quality, shipping is extremely fast and service…, even after sale is great!!!

YN- looks like we both have a good source for Crosman parts:)

i wanted to fill it from a small 4500 psi tank thats all
i dont have a hand pump and the paintball shop owes me some discounts
he said i can get the 68 cu tank for 110 and they do first 10 fills free after that it is 2 bucks

I would use a small needle valve when filling from 4500psi just to be on the safe side with a PCP setup 2240. And if you have a gauge on the gun that would really help by having two sources to look at as long you have a gauge on the tank.

gotcha… makes sense. Word of caution though. Be careful not to overfill… especially if you use the tiny 2240 tube as your air tube. Doesnt take much to overfill one of those smaller tubes!
