    Is Hoppe's 9 usable on a Mag?

    Also, does anyone kno if u can take out internals of an ACI 6 stage x-chamber and jus' use it as an air chamber\grip?
    lookin fer IR3 or Xtreme (C&C)

    black RT Mag for sale. Great condition. Stock barrel, sanded bolt, I-frame, blade trigger. Extra parts, bolt spring, internals o-rings, extra hardline, nubbins, hardline. it doesnt break balls except on ppl. asking $450.

    I don't know about the expansion chamber question.

    Don't use Hoppe's in any paintball gun. There is no need to, because there is no powder fouling to remove, and the stuff can mess up o-rings and seals. Also, it does not provide the kind of lubrication that the marker needs.

      Taking the guts out of a 6-stage X-Chamber simply makes it a 1-stage X-Chamber, with slightly less performance. In other words: Don't waste your time, if you're running HPA, spend $30 and get a gas-thru grip.

        First off i wouldnt use hoppies on my paintball gun because its penatrates so it will eventually eat your orings up. secondly why not sell the x chamber and buy the gas thru grip as earlier suggested.

          Don't use hoppes, it will eat your seals. Same goes for rem-oil. The only common oil you want to use is 3 in 1. I use aci airlube because one bottle lasts a while and almost every shop sells it.
