    jett adaptor Vs Cooper t valve

    further to experiment ive aquired a cooper t valve (thanks engineer )and had a test run today to set it up and to compare back to back what the advantages are of each system (88gr versus 12gr)...

    1st of all i noticed the balance, to be absolutely blunt the gun is sooo light that i have no problem weight wise at all, however, the Jett adapter leaves the gun well balanced and very easy to handle.....the t valve adds all 1LB + on and does affect balance......

    looks wise (vain i know)the Jett adapter walks it... nice and small and really suits the look of the gun, the bottle +valve+adapter looks too loooonnnngggg really.....

    powerwise (all subjective really based on observation) the t valve wins, more fog and gas, higher POI (i would guess to say better tracjectory) and more of a whack target end would seem that my earlier theory was correct ,however i dont have any measuring equipment yet and so its subjective at best....

    shot count wise obviously the T valve wins.... , although i really only use 30 shots on a plinking session so the jett adapter is really agreeable.....

    build quality wise the Jett adapter wins.... much better engineered and has a "safer"feel about it (all encased in thick ali), certainly after my little accident with the 1st airsource....the t valve needs "real" tightening ie with a spanner before its gastight, hence my 1st experience......tighten, tighten,tighten.......pop.....oh ***** (gas spraying out of end) cant stop the effing thing...run outside and chuck it on the lawn to emit 7 quids worth of gas, freeze up and knacker the o ring in side it........ second go.....pop down hardware store get a couple of o rings........spanner at the ready and quick escape route if it all goes pete tong. gas oozing out (slower this time) quick tweek with the spanner and alls well. so confidence is a little wavered at this point

    both items stop the gun being under constant load (very good for reliability) and are worth having just for this.... i think from a personal POV i would recommend the Jett adapter... much cheaper to run/waste, per shot, better balance, lower power for plinkin at home, looks more attractive and is better built.....

    .....however come sunday ill br sticking the 88 gr bottle back on (hopefully all the contents wont have oozed out by then ) and using it for a 2 hour 30yard plinking session down the club

    Best of both worlds..you bet!!!!!

    talking of power ive just done a couple of penetrative tests (oooeer missus) and it looks like the brass eagle doesnt lose out to the airsource on power either........so my earlier perceptions were ,thus, unfounded....
