All the tanks engage into the same thread on the action so the High Flows and Std Flows are interchangeable.
You need to pull the barrel and add the hammer weight when trading out for a High Flow Tank or the springing will be inadequate.
AF Pistol Is a;
Talon Action
SS Barrel is .25
Hammer weight
Hi Flow Low capacity TankMost qall the AF stuff besides the edge is completelty interchangeable from varinats. It is one of the attractions of th4e system
If you had a 18" and you got the hammer wieght and high flow low volume tank you would have yourself a 18" Pistol
Mac1 was the first to do long barrels and we did over 100 before the Condor release. By then we liked the std tank a lot and the high flow was a bonus. Basically you can supercharge ANY AF gun but be ready for superloud, The bHigh Flow tanks put out at least double the volume.

thanks tim. i have two condors but just bought two standard tanks. keeping one stock and gonna put a modded valve in the other for a 25 that i'm working on. i have been shooting the one at about 850-900 with cps and its nice to have something a little more sedate for the back yard, the new valve should push almost 125fpe out of the gun w 50+gr bullets and custom brass 130gr hammer i think? or so ive been lead to believe. also having a 308 barrel turned for it

We get about 10-12 days of Santa Ana Conditions where the normal flow reverses and we get off-shore rather than on-shore and the air coming off the desert can be a little brisk.
For those days you need to throw on some layers. If you don't dress for the conditions it can get uncomfortable as we have no heat besides propane Coleman portable in the shop.
Living in Gardena means you have hot for about a month or so. Cold for 1/2 that normally associated with a Northern Front or the Santa Ana Desert wind. You need Fans only. I have no Air at Shop or Home.
Natural Gas to heat my Condo has never been more than $50/mo including Water Heating & Cooking.
This is So Cal and it is hard to complain when it is 60F and you think it's cold but guys in Minnesota know what cold is.
Fourth Generation Californians have no clue what cold is.
