there aren't any places that can fill compressed air or nitrogen bottles within 30 minutes of my house so i was wondering if all cockers will run on co2 without many problems

**bob005** · July 22nd, 01:31 PM

no. only mech cockers can run on co2. and the tank must be anti-siphoned. even then, you dont want to use co2 all the time, it'll hurt the pneumatics eventually

**CoolHipJim56** · July 22nd, 01:57 PM

When the cockers first came out, HPA was not very popular, meaning, they where made to deal with Co2. So considering all the parts that where put into making the old cockers, are mostly on the new ones, it wont hurt your gun too much, just make sure you get it anti-siphoned as bob said.

did babe ruth actually say that, or did you just watch the sand lot

**CoolHipJim56** · July 22nd, 02:34 PM

I've seen the sandlot, But im pretty sure that was somthing he actually said, I found it on a quote website.

Actually i have run my cocker on un-siphoned co2 and it is fine, just try not to shoot fast or you could freeze an o-ring. But i cna shoot 10bps and mine dont freeze so who knows!

it wont kill your gun, but you are better off just getting nitro

Liquid co2 will freeze at lteast at high rate of fires because it has no time to expand.

**CmaN3** · July 22nd, 05:54 PM

It wont freeze all the time because when i fan the trigger i outshoot my revvy and mine dont freeze, and i have had mine on co2 since early this spring.

Just becuase you cant see it freezing, doesnt mean its not happening. The o-rings and other seals inside your gun are getting exposed to liquid Co2, cuasing them to freeze, which makes them become hard and brittle, so they are more prone to breaking.

bad idea i have never ran my gun on C02 but my dad did and it gave his gun probs

when i tried to join the cocker owners group they gave me a random number, and so i was number 18......its 18 not 14

**loaf** · July 24th, 12:31 AM

doesnt matter if its like 18 or 14, my point is i joined 2 years before you at number 54. did someone reset the owners group or somethign?

**sumsimpleracer** · July 24th, 01:11 AM

when i joined there were a whole bunch of gaps between numbers. so i guess i was just a seat filler.

I found a site that sells a regulator for a cocker that lets you use Co2 on your cocker and it's garanteed not harm your gun. Does that really work?

PM me the site.

Re-EDIT: Taken directly from the siite: "100% No Freeze Thermal Expansion Chamber uses fins to bring heat from outside to change the ambient temperature of the liquid resulting in a gas form of Co2. This design allows you to use an expansion chamber that is significantly smaller than before. Equivalent to a 11 stage expansion chamber" Sounds like it might actually do as it claims.

**bob005** · July 24th, 12:42 PM

damn, someone pm me that site, i know someone that could use one of those on his spyder

***NYY*** · July 24th, 05:32 PM

doesnt aka make a valve that insures that your cocker is co2 safe?
