      I have that issue somewhere here. But the magazine was discontinued. I can look for it tonight.

        True, but I'd be more worried about which has more force in the first 10-20 yards, not which one will shoot farther.

        But, either way, CO2 or HPA, they'd both kill you just as dead at short distances.

          At issue here is an improperly assembled tank, not CO2. It has been used for YEARS with very few problems.

          Lets not blow everything out of proportion.
