Was there ever a way to use the little C02 cartridges with the Classic Automag w/Powerfeed? Perhaps an adapter of some sort? And if there is, can it be purchased by the general public? I play Paintball with most newer gear, compressed air, the whole shot, but there have been some fields that I have played that only allow pump guns, or cartridge fueled markers - to slow the game down. Let me know if such equipment exists. Thanks in advance!

A 12 gram Quick Changer can be bought from practically any online store. Here's one - http://www.countypaintball.com/product_description.asp?item=2006

Just screw one of these lil guys into your ASA adapter and you'll be good to go:

(First link's the adapter, everything else is just stuff, also 12 grams on there as well, I know it's the same product and there is a price difference but I'm giving him options)

Also any good paintball shop will carry at least one, ask them for a 12 gram quick change/12 gram adapter. The ones I usually see are made of aluminum, not plastic.

P.S. If you can't find/get one off the net for some reason let me know I have one layin around over here.

Haha, thats kinda of a funny though. You'll hafta have 4 or 5 pods full of powerlets just so you can supply all of your paint with gas.

The 6-PAK+ is the "King" of the 12 gram quick changers. If you are really going to play with 12 grams, you need to get one of those.

Here is a picture of one:

WOW that is old school.

why would you want to do that anyway? Do you realize that a powerlet will give you 8 shots and is very financially unsensible?

More like 20 shot's with +/-20 or more fps.


Financially unstable? How?

I have NO IDEA how many shots it would get in a 'mag. In my phantom I could get 40 shots easy on a signle 12 gram. With the 6-PAK+ you can eject the old 12 gram and load a new one in less than a second. They VERY quickly did away with 12 gram tournaments, which was the purpose anyway (I was warned before I bought it). :D
