This is in addition to the review I made about the FUKU Regulator.

About 6 months ago I bought a (Click Me) GuerrillaAir FUKU Bottle Regulator and it was shipped via the dreaded DHL.

So after using this one and liking it a lot, I decided that I'd replace my MaxFlo in-line with another reg. The MaxFlo's on my 114/45 and set up for remote. I go to Guerrilla's web page and see that the (Click Me) Myth, that is normally $99.95, is on Halloween sale for $64.95 - Oh yeah...this I gotta try.

So I ordered the Myth. Same thing applies about shipping/boxed appearances. Opening the pack, I'm like WTF?!...........this thing is TINY! It looks good, don't get me wrong...but man, is it smmmmmmaaaaalllllllll...

I took 3 pics of it so you can see. I used a yellow thread protector and a U.S. Quarter to show size reference. It looks funny on the 114...lmfao. I have not yet filled it with air but will later this week.

With the supplied nipple cover:

On a 114/45:






EDIT 13 Nov 2007

On Sunday the 11th I played using this reg. Temperature started at about 40*F and the warmest it got was about 58*F around noon~ish. On my 114/45, I started with 4200 psi.

* 500 balls put through the Ion. Amount of air remaining was approx 3700 psi. Air used=approx 500 psi
* 250 balls put through the Mag. Air remaining from 3700 was approx 3100 psi. Air used=approx 600 psi
* 50 balls put through the pump. From 3100 psi was approx 2900 psi. Air used was approx 200 psi
* 25 balls through the M98. 2900 psi to 2600 psi. Air used was approx 300 psi. Not only did the marker eat a ton of air, there was recocking failures galore. I stopped at 25 out of disgust for this particular combination of reg/marker.

Air used was calculated to rounding DOWN to the nearest line to the needle.

Use on a highly upped ION as I described above:
It was the bomb with my Ion. The recharge rate was unbelievably fast...much faster than I was anticipating. My Op Pressure for 280 fps was 125 and it absolutely shot ropes. Semi was fast enough so I swapped it to 15 bps ramping. It kept up just fine and my in-line reg gauge never dipped below half of one line (50 psi increment). It looked more like it was 'wobbling' from vibration more than anything else. Absolute A+/10 of 10 for this particular marker.

68 Classic AutoMag:
Here I ran into some trouble. The stock Mag needs a higher psi to operate properly and being that the valve is also the reg...I experienced shootdown. If I fired slowly...<2 bps it worked great. Getting on the trigger though, I would watch the paint fall closer and closer to me in that string. I knew this was going to happen but I didn't think to this extreme. Rating C or 7/10. My suggestion is not to use the Myth with a Mag. Use the HP FUKU, Assault or Ambush models of regulator instead.

68 Magnum:
Recharge was alright with the pump because it's a slower action marker. The marker was giving me some crap but again...this one never liked HPA from any bottle I ever used. All things considered...I'd rate it a B+ or 8/10.

Tippmann M98:
Same as the Mag but worse. At least the Mag is tunable wheras the M98 is not. Shootdown was absolutely horrible and to the point of multiple recocking failures. DO NOT use the MYTH with any HP Tippmann marker. You'll be disappointed to say the least. Consider this an F or 1/10 grade for Tippmanns.

So there you have it. The MYTH reg is not for use with HP stacked or single-tube markers. It worked awesomely with the LP Ion. If the Mag were able to work at a lower OP pressure, I'm sure it would have done better at higher speeds.

I'm still happy I bought it. It's a phenominal reg that's really intended for LP markers. Have an LP marker? Get it and son't look back. Have a lower-end HP marker? Skip the MYTH and get the HP regs that GuerrillaAir offers. You'll be much happier.

Any specs on how the recharge rate compares to the Crossfire?

I heard there was a little side by side test done at the World Cup the other weekend where The Crossfire people rep actually challenged the Guerrilla Air rep. They both grabbed the the same sized tank and went over to Bob Longs tent and had a shoot off. The Crossfire vs the Myth Reg.

The story is saying that the Crossfire reg shot about 13 pods of paint before running dry. However the Myth Reg shot 17 pods of paint.

Both were used on the same maker with the same sized tanks that were both filled to the same lever right then and there.

The story does come from pbnation, so take it for whats its worth. There are a few people who are confirming this. So not only does it apparently keep up, but is also is alot more efficient in not wasting air during high rates of fire. I've always like the Guerrilla Air products. Darn fine parts for very little in price if you ask me. and Dave the owner is a stand up guy all the way.

sadly no. Guerilla won't publish those specs, I've asked them myself. I would imagine they'd have to if someone were to challenge them in court though...

That is a nice looking reg. Let us know how it works. I have only heard good things about them.

Initial post updated in RED text. Thanks for your patience.

the myth is a mid pressure reg. and the 98 and mag do need high pressure, so its again kinda like asthmatic marker syndrom.

Nice review though, GA does make some quality regs.

I wonder how this reg would work with a Blazer, which is mid low pressure....
What do you think?

My Ion loved it. This reg is perfect for LP operating markers.

The HP markers more-or-less hated it.

The Mag's kind of a different story because even though the marker's a HP operating one, it's inherent recharge rate [by design] is faster than the other HP markers I used...so it wasn't that bad.

If I had to answer that Party of A-5, I'd hazard a guess that it should do "good-to-very well."

Hope this helps.

A 2K would do better than a 1K. Mine (1K) runs around 550 PSI. 2Ks run around 400 FPS. The 1K might be a little iffy, but the 2K would undoubtedly perform great.
