Re: The Yay or nays of Expansion Chambers
does it help accuracy? yes...
does it help it enough to really make a whoop? no.

while it does allow the co2 to expand into a gas easier.. it's not regulating how much pressure is going through. Regulation is key for accuracy.

Re: The Yay or nays of Expansion Chambers
The x-chamber only allows the co2 to expand more into gas (it's in liquid form in the bottle or at least liquish-ish) so that the gun has more gas to run off of. Gas is what the gun wants. If you want to upgrade your air system I highly reccomend switching to hpa.

Also on a side note, if you have a remote line, it also works like an expansion chamber, not exactly but there still is room for the co2 to become gas.

But as for accuracy, it makes your shots more consistant. I dunno, it also give you a funky looking piece I suppose you could use as a grip.
