Is there something that is needed to go from co2 to nitro on a mag? I was readin' a guy is sellin' some nitro tanks and said he had nitro springs to go from co2 to nitro. . .


Also this weekend I played with some friends and I ran a 68 ci 3000 psi nitro tank. At the crono it was all over the place one shot is like 310 the next is 275. . . it was crazy. It seemed to be stable around 260-270. But shouldn't it be stable anywhere. . . ?

I change from nitro to co2 on occasion with no mods to the stock valve the only difference is the input pressure its lower with co2 irratic velocity is do to something else like the paint or that tank buy a decent tank

You won't need to make any changes to your mag to go from Co2 to nitro. As for the velocity fluxuations its probably a bad reg seat.

Reg seat? Where's that :-? I'm rather new to the whole high end gun and nitro setup :-p

to change reg seat:

take out your valve. untwist the 2 halves of the mag body. on the back half of the valve, you will see a hole (in the middle) with a clearish/yellow round plastic thing. that is the reg seat. if it is dirty or scratched, replace it. when you replace it, put it in so that it "snaps" in place. there are 2 sides to it.

a bad reg seat is usually one of the causes of eratic velocity.
