nope.
Unless you siphon it, then regulate it, and even then your tempting fate. It will screw up your 3-way mostly, so if youre going to do it plan on replacing the internal 3-way o-rings or getting a whole new 3-way.

Breeves would argue me, but its not a good idea. I know dude "when cockers were first introduced they ran on co2" but since then the autococker has more orings to break. 21 orings. You pop one because c02 causes it to freeze and crack, then YOU have to go and find which one is done. Just spend 15 dollars and get it anti-siphoned.

yeah yeah. what kind of cocker is it? thats a good question. really though the only o-rings in your gun that you have to even worry about are the ones on your banjo bolt and the ones in your 3-way. and like for my shocktech 3-way i just spent 2 min. on the phone and got 6 o-rings and a sticker sent and here within a week. big whoop there. hpa is better, but short term or even moderate to long term use of co2 isn't that big of a deal for a mech cocker. electros on the other hand...well lets not go there...

I know i know, but the point i am trying to make is that A/S saves you alot of hassel. It also increases efficiency too..who wouldnt want that?

anti syphon is the only co2 option you would have. Do not run a regular co2 tank on a cocker.

that certianly is true, but still. point is that if you really don't have the cash to spend, like you're savin for an hpa tank and what not, it won't really matter that mucn if you run regular co2 through it.

Having your tank antisyphoned is only like $15, very worthwhile investment.
