If the BM reg is like the stock cocker reg you are correct on pressure adjustment. Take a look at some articles on sweet-spotting your reg, (still have yet to do this, to my own detriment) Vantrepes has a good one, Vampyr can point you to some others I'm sure. Lowest pressure isn't alway's better for efficiency if not sweetspotted. You may be able to slap a gauge into the reg if it has an extra port, otherwise you can tap one into the side of the front block, or just remove the big set screw on the botom of the front block and replace with a gauge that will clear everything (Dale, you have a recomendation on which one to use I think).

: I just bought a 02 BM Autococker. I haven't used it yet. I've been playing with Tippman Guns for years so I don't know very much about Autocockers. The manual that came with the gun was very poor. It tells you how to adjust velocity but not how to adjust the in line regulator. I assume the turning the screw on the bottom out (counter clockwise) will increase the pressure and in (clockwise) will decrease the pressure. Is this correct? I also assume that you want to have it running at the lowest possable pressure. Can a guage be added to the reg and or the front block? If so, what to people recomend?
