Some stores carry O-Rings by their ID and OD. Use this sizing chart to reference what sizes to get.
Air System
You can use High Pressure (HP) or Low Pressure (LP) tanks with the Promaster. You can also use an adjustable tank, if you do, setting it to work like a low pressure tank at around 400-450psi is a good idea.
Barrels
It takes any and all Autococker(tm) or Cocker(tm) barrels. This is the same as the intimidator, matrix, AKA guns and many others.
Weight
The gun out of the box, with regulator but without barrel weighs 1.997lbs
Size
Similar length as B2K4, but the Promaster is approx 0.765" less tall than the B2K4 (because the tray has been removed).
Board
The stock board comes with semi, PSP and NXL modes. You can run it with a 15bps cap, or unlimited (shoots as fast as your loader). The stock board is very good, and does not need to be upgraded immediately. If you want to upgrade it any board for the FS7 Freestyles will work. This is the type of board where it is held in place by screws going through the microswitch.
Modes are adjusted very easily via dip switches on the board:-
Semi unlimited
Semi 15bps capped
PSP (3 pulls then ramping as long as you move your fingers) unlimted
PSP 15bps capped
NXL (3 pulls then hold on the fourth for Full Auto) unlimited
NXL 15bps capped.
Dwell is adjusted by a dip switch and trigger pulls. Read the manual!
High Pressure Inline Regulator
You can swap this out for any inline regulator that you wish. One that works well between 200-300psi is a good idea.
Low Pressure Regulator (the one just under the barrel)
You can use LPR's from the Bushmaster guns but the spring guide is a slightly different length. You can use it as is, but it may affect performance slightly. It's recommended to use a spring two or three coils shorter if using a Bushmaster LPR. Or wait for specific LPR's to come out.
Main Poppet Valves
You can use Bushmaster/BKO valves, but some work and seal better than others. If it's not stated to work by the manufacturer then you take your own risk.
Solenoid
It's a Humphries. The same as used by most top end gun manufacturers.
Feed Necks
It takes all Bushmaster feednecks. This are similar but NOT exactly the same as impulse and angel feednecks. Some impulse and angel feednecks will fit and work ok, others will strip out and could damage your gun's body. It is recommended to get a proper Promaster/Bushmaster/Bko threaded feedneck. You can use one that is for a Impulse of Angel but at your own (and your gun's risk). The standard neck is sized to use a Halo or a slightly sanded halo. If you want to use other hoppers you may need to use electrical tape to make them fit tight, or get a clamping feedneck (which are readily available).
Triggers
It takes the same triggers as Freestyles. You can swap them out very easily and choose the pivot point, as well as adjust the feel with three different screws.
Ball Detents
It uses the same ball detents as the Freestyle, these are EXCELLENT (in my opinion) and far better to any detents on the previous Bushmaster/BKO series. They work great with force feed loaders.
Grips
You can use pretty much any 45 style wraparound grips. The stock ones are hogue style with a palm swell. Not the prettiest but they are comfortable.
Bolts
You can use any bushmater/BKO bolt. The stock bolt is pretty good though. It is small and light with good flow, not something you need to upgrade/change straight away.
Eyes
The eyes are 3mm breakbeam eyes. They work great with ANY paint. It doesn't matter what colour or brand or shell etc.
QEV
The gun already comes with a QEV on the ram to help it cycle faster.
Manual
READ the manual before using the gun, it is a good manual that tells you how to look after the gun and change any settings you need to. You can find the manual online here...

Lube
Dow 33 or similar works. Only lube the gun when it needs it. A guide to lubing the gun can be found HERE!
