    AKA sidewinder rebuild

    How do I separate the reg so I can attempt a rebuild, currently the reg is leaking from the bleed hole. Ive tried a little oil into the input to see if that may help to no avail.

      That’s a dam good use for those things I like that. I’m going to make one with my cut off wheel. That would be handy for the toolbox.

    Conversely, I picked up an inception HPR as the Sidewinder was being an ass. I found that under non aggressive rapid fire I was getting shoot down. But its worth mentioning that its on a ditto deuce. Do you think a stabilizer would be better than the sidewinder?

      I think AKA makes the best regs on the market honestly. I would run the HP spring in the sidewinder.

        I ran across a rebuild vid from Firpo and used the rubber band trick.

        Luckily I had the right size rings in an old harbor freight Oring kit. I lack a chrono but I do have it up and running now!!!!

          Yeah you are definitely going to need lots of pressure for that pig. My Doc Twin needed a lot of pressure and mines setup as a pump. Cool build that’s a KCPS?

          An AKA Two Liter reg would really make that baby sing.
