Red Sea Paintball CO2 regulator leak

So I took apart the regulator today and found a poorly soldered copper pipe in the cylinder pressure gauge. I'm hoping I can sweat it tonight and have that fix it. Otherwise I'll try to find a replacement gauge or I might just plug it. The leak was so bad it basically emptied my 24oz cylinder in 3 days.

Ugh.... I am not sure if the threading is the same as a regular sized regulator, if it is do you want me to check prices for CO2 pressure gauges?

It *looks* like standard 1/4" but I won't know for sure unless I have to take it apart. I'm going to attempt repair tonight and see what happens.

All fixed. A quick resoldering and it's holding pressure like a champ.
