Well, you need a Co2 valve and an anti-siphon kit. Thats about it. I would reccomend you having an Airsmith install it and the Anti-Siphon kit to your particular gun.
Shane-OI have nothing good to put here...........

A CO2 pin valve, an anti-siphon tube (if you want) and some locktite.Originally posted by Jdoggi was wanting to know what parts i need and what tanks are reccommended
As for recomended tanks I have no clue...
it's not THAT hard to instal and anti-siphon tube. I think it's pretty easy myself...Originally posted by Shane-O-MacI would reccomend you having an Airsmith install it and the Anti-Siphon kit to your particular gun.

Find out how much one CUIN of liquid CO2 weighs and then you should have your answer.Originally posted by Jdoggfor tanks like if i use a 48 3000 tank how much co2 will take to fill the tank? the same for other size tankComment

Bottle Volumes:
Bottle Volume
size (cu in)
(oz)
3.5 9.0
7.0 18.0
12.0 31.0
20.0 51.0
Roughly, the volume of a CO2 bottle (cu in) is about 2.57 times the bottle size (oz)
Specific Gravity of CO2 is 1.977 gm/cc Thus the weight of 1 cu inch of liquid CO2 is 1.140 oz.Hope I helpedA "full" tank contains about 34% liquid CO2. If it is filled any more, the CO2 will become very sensitive to temperature changes, with a small increase in temperature causing a large increase in pressure. This is a dangerous situation which is avoided by only partially filling the CO2 bottle.
One cubic inch of water weighs 0.577 oz and the specific gravity of liquid CO2 is 1.977 gm/cc so one ounce of liquid CO2 has a volume of 0.877 cubic inches. CO2 bottles generally have a full-fill to volume ratio of about 2.57 cubic inches per ounce of CO2, so that one ounce of CO2 will take up 0.877/2.57 = 34% of the total volume of the bottle.
The figure of 68% is often quoted as the volume of liquid in a full bottle, but this error probably stems from translating "ounce" into volume using water as the standard. Water is 1.00 gm/cc, or about half the density of liquid CO2 so that if a CO2 bottle is filled to its rated capacity with water, it will be 68% liquid by volume.
