Stephenwilko Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 I'm in the process of buying a Theoben mk1 rapid, I've been reading about the regulators that can be fitted to the mk1 do they improve the consistency or not, if they do improve the gun who's best in fitting and tuning these guns, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoli 12 guage Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 (edited) yep,better with a regulator,even at FAC power. i have a factory FAC regged mk2 in .22 (my second, shouldn't have sold the first tbh) that gets 80 plus shots at mid 30's ft/lbs withno power curve.you'll get 400 in .22 @12 ft/lbs there are a few Rapid techies but it depends where you based for ease of transport etc. Edited March 20 by Zoli 12 guage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
