VICTOR and DUAL STAGE REGULATOR PIMP CLUB (Helpful Information Links are on Page 1)

[Left C]

Should we start a Victor CO2 Regulator Pimp Club?

I have VTS253A-1993, VTS253D-320, HPT500-40-350-4M, SGT500-40-4F-DK CO2 regulators.

May I claim Victor Pimp #1?



EDIT: Anyone that has a dual stage regulator as well as a Victor regulator is welcome to join.

The permalinks only work if I have my posts per page under edit options in User CP set to match yours when the Permalink was created.

Not a big deal for me to look for the post number or go to my user CP and change my posts per page to display 15 like yours to make the link work.
But lots of folks that may have changed that setting and forgot about it might get frustrated about the link not being accurate.
