Hk basic tank reg?

[Quickling]

Had anyone tracked the shot-to-shot consistency of the basic HK tank reg?

I have a bunch of their 13/3000 tanks and I have just
been "meh" about them. Never thought good or bad of them, especially since they only live on pumps.

Lately I've been considering going to a 15/4500 (local field offers 4500 fills).

Not sure I want to swing the extra $90 for the carbon fiber over the aluminum, but it started to make me wonder if the alpha hp8 reg is consiederably more consistent than the basic reg that the aluminum tank comes with. I could always buy the aluminum bottle and reg seperate and go with an upgraded reg if its worth it.

I haven't done extensive testing, so this is all just of "feel" but I do spend a lot of time on the chrono and can't really notice much of a difference between regs. High quality or low quality seem to have a negligible difference on FPS spread in comparison to paint quality and bore sizing when using a pump.

Agreed. I think you really only notice a big difference when you're shooting fast. I think most basic tank regs if the seals are in good shape and they're clean will perform similarly with a pump or slow shooting marker.
