to clarify, in the manual it says what it does in the ion one pretty much, and we know how they hate co2...

it basically says you can, but use an anti-syphon tube... :rolleyes: dont do it though! please :)

TBH, wouldn't use ANY marker on CO2 if air is avaliable and really the rate of fire from elctro's mean that you can really only get away with CO2 on mech's even then it's horrible stuff.

Staying warm on a sunday!
i remeber using co2 on my old impulse many moons ago!

i'll always remember the cold hands after.....

the frozen foregrip....the frozen and frosted reg

the frosted body....

it was a long game and a hot day in a farm house at a local site.....


no i dont have pics.....


and you really shouldnt put co2 through a high end tourny gun!

hell i wouldnt even put co2 through my ion!

co2 will not give you consistancy, will slowly damage the interior of your gun reg and seals, freeze your gun up and will also make a big massive cloud when you shoot a ball!


co2 is a dying source of propellant used mainly for site equipment as its cheap

if you are that hell bent on using co2 get a low end gun or one that can withstand the prolonged use of co2 and be prepared to buy pleanty of seal kits.


to put in lamens term what you are saying:-

would you put diesel in a Bugatti???

i think not!! why...... cos it will F*ck it up!!

why spend such a lot of money on a supreme model and then deny it the basic operating perameters!


id say having a high class stunning frauline as a girlfriend and expecting her to enjoy a night down your local with a kebab for desert... but hey....

you still think girls are eeeerrrrrrrrrr right?

Depends if it's a Diesel engine, Bugatti marine engines run very well on diesel :D

But seriously matey, try it and let us know how it goes... :D
make sure you have a camera ready. I hear licking the vert reg helps too... ;)

**Please don't try this at home kids....**

hi,

i was wondering if a shocker actual works well on c02 or is it just something smarts parts just thinks it can do!?!

Also can a hybrid traitor shocker work on c02 aswell or not!?!

Cheers Tim ;)
NO!!! my mates throttle air got wrecked because when he put it in a gun that had had some co2 in it and it was an ion. I think if it is not liquid co2 then you are ok. But your best using air

Thats the answer i wanted!! thank you but i still think i should get a shocker just so i could use it up at my local feild where they dont have air!!! :eek:
Maybe your local field doesn't want people there with tournement markers, hence sticking with CO2 :D:D:D:D:D

Most markers will survive on CO2 for a while, but get it checked before you put it then on air.

As most have said


DON'T DO IT !!!!!!!
