That's right, let's all have a good laugh.

Seriously, as long as NO LIQUID is drawn into the regs, a couple of shots just to test for leaks is unlikely to do any harm. Trying to actually play with CO2 is a good way to wreck things quickly, but if you're only drawing enough to air up the system I can't realistically see much harm coming to it.
really??
apart from voiding your warranty if there are any problems with it now,
i`ll stick with testing mine with air thank you, i`ll leave the ego/co2 testing to the numptys :rolleyes:

In summary, don't do it again. I hope you degassed your marker sonny boy (you said you didn't fire a shot), or you'll have a leaky valve in your future, not to mention maybe blasting someone in the nutsack.

5hit guys, calm down. I think the lad knows himself not to have done it, but no need to start calling him. No, a Ego 8 shouldn't be run on CO2 but at least he had some sense to hold the bottle upright so no liquid got drawn into the marker and at the end of the day it's his gat.

Never thought an Ego would get Barrymore'd........guess he must have just struck it lucky this time :D

Lesson learned, don't stick things where they don't belong.
