    Woundering if Fire Gun in Water?

    Hi, I was just woundering if I could fire my 68 Automag underwater without it breaking. I thought it would be pretty cool to have paintball fights underwater. if anyone knows this could you please respond. Thank you!

      no you cant you can hold a automag under water with air hooked up to it. but once you fire water would be able to get in the gun. also all you gear would start to rust and i dont think paintballs would go threw the water

        ive done it before... water dosent get into the gun as long as you don't go too deep. (Meaning scubadiving deep)There is always positive pressure coming out of the gun that keeps water out as long as the airsource is hooked up.

        Just a useless tidbit of info... This is the principle of the sherwood scuba drybleed system. It keeps the scuba regulator at a positive pressure in relation to water pressure to keep water out.

            read your owners manual,

            gas it up put it underwater, I am not sure about firring it, however it is an excelant way to clean it.

                Y'all should watch Tom's Automag maintenance video. It is safe to fire the 'Mag under water, as once it is pressurized no H2O can get in to the valve. But the observations about the paintballs & an electronic marker are absolutely accurate. Also, keep in mind any non-stainless steel parts (like frame screws) that can rust...

                    Considering the light weight and high mass (low density ) of a paintball, if it did somehow manage to come out of the barrel in one peice... if will probably only "fly" only a foot or two. Water is fairly dense, mind you the FBI uses small water tanks to stop real bullets for ballistics examination. Real bullets are much more dense and aerodynamic then a paintball, and they still slow rapidly in water.
