Nelson has them beat on the pump innovation by a good 30 years.
Oh I'm sorry have there been a lot of propane markers that I've missed? The C3 wasn't meant to be used with refillable propane you are supposed to use the throwaway tanks kind of like you use for Coleman stoves you know the kind that have been around since before paintball was a sport? The C3 doesn't use propane like other markers use CO2 or HPA it is an entirely new method of propulsion it actually uses a spark to ignite the propane something that I can't remember ever being used before. Switching a Spyder from CO2 to HPA is no big deal at all AGD went from a classic valve using CO2 to the RT valve using HPA in '96.
