Running an Autococker on a Ninja SLP

[mooman978]

I have a stock 2k RF autococker coming in the mail and I want to be able to run it with the slp (300 psi) tank I use for my other newer guns (G6r, Emek, Dm8). Would putting a low pressure valve and using something like a Docfire spring kit be enough to get the gun running? If so could you guys educate me on how the valve and hammer springs interact and how different combinations of springs effect velocity and operating pressure. I am not concerned with efficiency I just need it to shoot at 280 fps.

Thanks

The inline regs for those were set around 350psi from the factory. The right springs allow them to run as low as 225psi using the springs below (they also sell them on eBay)

The problem you might run into is the pressure difference between your SLP tank and the inline regulator, it might not be enough for the inline regulator to function properly. People normally suggest having at least 100psi difference between the two regulators. A lot of that depends on your inline regulators performance too. The WGP regulator is good, but I'm unsure if it can properly function while only being fed 300psi. Hopefully someone else can chime in with their experience on that subject. So that mean you might also need to get a new inline regulator to make it shoot 280fps. That's not necessarily the worst idea anyway, because the stock inline regulator that's currently on the gun is a pain to adjust (it has to be degassed and partially disassembled in order to be adjusted).

hmm that’s what I was thinking as well. I probably will get a different reg because of the point you mentioned about its adjustability.

If possible, make sure the reg will work with an input of 300psi. I'd guess most modern inline regs will work, like a CP or Dye Hypers. But certain regs need higher input pressure, like Air America regs supposedly need around 800psi input from the tank to function properly.

One thing I forgot to mention earlier. The 225psi operating pressure I mentioned was from an Orracle. The lower tube internals are basically the same (besides the springs). However the Orracle bolt allows for a much higher flow than yours. So that operating pressure will probably be higher than 225psi in your gun unless you replace the bolt as well. A decent used bolt can be found for around $25-$35 in the forums, Facebook, and Ebay. WGP's delrin bolts are actually pretty nice and can usually be found around that price.
