Will any high-end electros run on CO2 or Anti-Syphon CO2?

Just wondered.


Thanks!

High-end and CO2 should not even go in the same sentence...

I use co2 on my Palmers Blazer and Typhoon and my CCM cocker all the time.

No egun should use CO2 unless properly regulated.

Yes.

Now, some will want to define "high-end" a little differently, but here goes:

Impulse
Shocker
Nerve
ION
Intimidator
Matrix
DM4/5/C
Newer Angels
Every Cocker ever (Ecocker or not)
Bushmasters (new and old)
Defiants (new and old)
Vikings
Excaliburs


The list goes on and on . . . . . . .

Basically, anything that will run reliably at 500psi or less will be just fine with CO2.

You will want to run anti-syphon and double reg it for sure though (otherwise the high ROF will draw liquid into your main reg and freeze it up).

I've run every electro I've ever owned on CO2, so I know it is possible.

Just be sure to wear gloves, or the vert reg will freeze to your hand. :wow:

What is Double-reg it?

What is Double-reg it?

Run two regulators in-line with one another.

The first one set to about 450 or 500psi (to chop off the spikes), and the second set to your operating pressure (to run the marker).

I usually run a MaxFlo 4500 system with an anti-syphon tube, and another inline reg for the foregrip.

If you want to use screw in bottles, go with a Palmer's Female stabilizer (the tank screws right into the reg), or one of the older bottom line MaxFlo's from an Impulse (converted to HP of course).
