    Nitro is compressed air.....
    There really isnt much of a difference.

    Typically, when people say "nitro" they are reffering to the fact that compressed air is 70% N2....

    Now, sometimes you can get ahold of pure (or near pure) nitrogen.....And its no differance.

      I've never seen or even heard anyone seeing pure nitro...

      Well they're the same thing...

          isn't it around 78%?

          I use pure nitrogen and have never had any performance change over when I use normal air

            If you live near an ocean or maybe lake where there's scuba diving, you definitely have compressed air. If you live in the midwest, it might be nitrogen because instead of buying a compressor they might just buy a nitrogen tank from a chemical company. Of course nitrogen is probably cost more since it is being purified.

              they both do the same job, and are pretty much thte same thing. no performance advantage, just some juice to get yoru marker firing.
