    you can dunk a gassed-up mag in a bucket of water, i dont think snow would be a problem.

      Snow is fine.. just make sure to dry your gun off afterwards.

              I have actually used mine when there was snow on the ground. Not a problem.

                I played in the snow on Sunday. The biggest problem was snow melting and going into the barrel through the ports which created a bit of inconsinstency. No problem with the marker though - although my friend using CO2 got frozen up.

                  My buddies mag was caught in a fire when his house went up, he recovered the mag, replaced the melted grip and orings, and it was up a running again. amazing, I know my angel would've never made that journey

                      automag in winter on co2

                      I use my automag on co2 in the winter.
                      here is a few tips for cold play.

                      i use a remote and harness. turn the harness so the tank is in front of you. and put your heavy coat on over top of the tank.
                      i have also put hand warmers and wrapped them around my expansion chamber with a rubber band.
                      You can also put the hand warmers around the tank inside my coat. it not only warms the tank but will warm you up too.

                      you can usually find the hand warmers at Ace hardware or a hunting store

                      Good luck on your winter play!

                          Wow, that' amazing. Shows you how great the workmanship of AGD is

                          As for running co2 in the winter, I'd just say that you need to take greater pains in making sure not to get liquid in the gun. Expansion Chamber/Anti-Siphon or Remote Bottle should work.

                              I think silentx is having trouble getting his point across. I'm a little confused on it myself. But what i think he is trying to say is that he has a purple monkey dishwasher
