Co2 or Air

[MovingTarget]

Hi guys,

This is going to be a complete n00b question so forgive me :)

Currently I run an A5 (Stock) on C02.

Since the winter is coming up and the temperature drops lower I am concerned about continuing to use c02 for constant air flow.

I was looking at the air alternatives, but I'm completly lost on what to use, would I need anything extra, pro's cons etc.

Can any one help explain this stuff to me ?

Thanks

Get yourself a pre-set air system (Fat-Bob's do a 0.8 litre pre-set for about £80 if memory serves). You can use this as a direct replacement for your current Co2 bottle with nothing else required. You won't get as many shots per bottle, but self-filling is a doddle & most sites have fill rigs anyway:D

How many shots per fill do you reckon ??

On an average ?

Anyone ?

Depends on the PSI and size of the tank. I have a 4500psi 1.1litre bottle with a nitro duck preset reg and I get around 1800 shots on a full fill through an Inferno. Haven't used the cocker through a full fill yet but that goes through 1300 on a 2800psi fill up. It depends what the operating presure on the A5 is?

Cheers mate,

Since I'm short on cash this month I was looking at This (http://www.fatbobspaintball.co.uk/acatalog/Complete_Air_Systems.html)

Is this good enough for a first air system and roughtly how many shots per fill ?.

Also mate, are you going to Bassetts Pole this weekend ?

You should get 700+ shots from the 3000psi 0.8l
