Regulator tester question

[mr.grimm]

I need to adjust the regulator on my .25 Cal Taipan Veteran but do not have tester. Are testers universal with all regulators? Will the Huma tester work for the Veteran regulator?

I own one of the Huma testers, and from what I recall, it will only work on Huma regs

Cootertwo is right. The HUMA tester only works with HUMA regulators because it’s too short and longer regulators don’t fit in.

Now that’s what I did to test my cricket regulators…..

I have the HUMA tester for the Air Arms / CZ 200 which I use to test my two CZ 200’s. This tester works fine with the Altatos regs as well and it’s half the price of the other one.

I had a machinist, friend of mine, make an adapter to fit this tester to the cricket tube. You unscrew the valve, screw the tester and you are ready.

I’m planning to do the same for my Taipan…

If you have cool machine tools, that rocks. I have opted to use huma regs, and reg tester. heres a side by side of the taipan regs.

Thanks for the pictures, and measurement info Scoutscope. Just the info I needed. Do you find the Huma regulators to be very accurate to the pressure markings on them? Hate to buy another regulator, nothing wrong with the one that came with the gun. I just have no way of knowing what it is set at or what I am adjusting it to without a tester for it.
