    Nitro and expansion chamber ??!!??

    Hello all, i just pruchased an Automag Classic and running it on CO2 with an Expansion chamber and i wana switch to a Nitro bottle.

    So my first question is : can i keep my expansion chamber to use my nitro bottle ?! or should i sell my expansion chamber and get a gas thru grip?!

    Second question : I'm restricted on budget so i'm aiming at a steel bottle , what PSI should the bottle be ?! i heard that a 850 PSI preset bottle will work , can anyone confirm that.

    Thx

    Most preset tanks are set for ~850 psi.

    As for the Xpansion chamber, you don't need it, and if you want you can sell it. But it won't hurt you at all.

    (BTW- I have a 68/3000 steel tank up for sale. $75 if you want it.)

      I really don't see how it could hurt to run with your expansion chamber still on there (except you will lose more gas when you degass your marker)

      Some people say don't do it, I think it would probably make a good foregrip and haven't had any trouble running my gun with it on there (with n2, and I've seen other people do it with success).

      But if you're working on a limmited budget keep it around (unless you already have one) it's one of those parts that can go on almost any gun and who knows maybe sometime you'll need to run co2 on yours!

      But hey choice is yours!

          You could leave it on there if you want. It wont hurt it or anything, but it may slow the air flow down a bit.

          Any HPA/n2 tank that puts out more than 800psi should be fine.
