    AO, Really need yalls help

    Hey guys, I am kind of in a situation. I put my tank on sale (check the link in my siggy) because when I play with my buddies I have always ended up using CO2, seeing as the closest scuba station is a 15-20 minute drive from our make-shift field. I can get many more shots off CO2 than N2, hence why I use the 20 oz bottles. However, I will soon be moving off to college and getting into tourney play. My question is, with a double-reg stabalizer-gladiator set-up, will CO2 be suitable for tourney play? And I mean serious tourney play. My main marker is my project spyder, and I am looking into getting a B2k5 for my next gun. Will CO2 work on this marker? Please help me out and advise me as to wether or not to trade my tank and forget about N2 (at least for the time being), or to keep it and forget about CO2.

      College and paintball do not go along well together. Invest in a pump. That's about the only way to afford playing, while at the same time living out of a cardboard box and eating ramen and old pizza.

        nippinout speesk the truth! but anyways, n2(HPA) will be easier for tourny play because almost evey tourny has n2. you can also get more shots off an HPA. two regs can be done, but it can sometimes starve the gun for air.
        hope this helps

          Yeah, college and paintball arent gonna mix well, especially tourny play. Most people going to college end up having to sell their stuff to pay for expences and im guessin the same thing will happen to you unless you have some serious money.

                  What they say about college is true.

                  My advice: Keep the spyder. Don't buy anything new. Run N2 for fields, keep a 20oz for woods. Sell everything else.

                      Don't bother with c02. Keep your nitro tank. Go to any decent tourney, every player will have n2 for obvious reasons.

                        if your doing tourney play then keep the nitro its easier to top off after a long game and alot faster to fill than co2!!

                          Double regging CO2 is like having an adjustable N2 tank (output-->input)

                          I just want to know if it will be consistant. It also depends on what I get for the tank. I was just wondering...

                            I dont know about your situation, but college and paintball havent mixed well for me. I had been playing national tournaments before college, some nppl, some psp... I even played xball with AGD pride. When I got to college I found that I just didnt have the time or transportation to keep playing. The couple times I made it to the field this past semester I found myself dropping big bucks. My sponsors certainly werent going to support me back east. I finally had to give up on it. I am going to sell my gear for now. I love playing, but it just isnt working right now. I hope you have better luck than I have.
