the problem is not the reg it was the people that put it together

Indeed and the Mk 20 is susceptible to being cocked up in that fashion on repair. If you want to see what I mean pull it apart and then try to replace the HP stem o ring and the bits that hold it in place.
There are plenty of other regs suitable for the task. The Mk 2's are O2 certified, and I believe the Mk 10+ without the knife edge piston is suitable as well. Then there are a whole gamut of diaphragm regs made by Zeagle, Mares, Apeks etc.
