sorry but i forgot 2 mention that laws in new zealand restrict me to semi auto. no select fire or e-grips with multiple fire modes for me. flatline in NZ costs about $155 and a R/T is close to $100 (its insane). i also run on a remote which i have been told kind-of works as expansion chamber.
as far as I know, the remote line like I use on the x7 makes your CO2 an anti-siphon style tank...since its so far away, and usually the tank is upright on your back, it keeps liquid CO2 from getting in your gun.
I didn't think it got really cold in New Zealand? I've seen SP1s on CO2 work in temps of -20C here and they held up alright you do just have to watch the speed you are shooting at but that goes for any marker running on CO2. The reg doesn't vent when it gets cold it vents when your marker sucks in liquid CO2 to release the excess pressure and to prevent the liquid from wrecking the electronics.

yea it gets pretty cold here (i live just under cardrona ski resort)
Of course, the $350 to buy the tank is pretty stiff.
yea. i figured out that it would be cheaper to pay to make a wire transaction, buy a tank in the USA, pay for shipping to NZ, change exchange rates to US dollar and pay the duty fee than buy in my own country (only save like $15 but still). if only i had a friend that lived their
You still might not be able to use it. I know that when I buy a tank from the U.S I have to make sure that it is stamped for use in Canada or I can't get it filled I'd imagine it would be the same in New Zealand as well. Just make the most of CO2 one of the best things about it is how easy it is to find that is the main reason I bought a Blazer and if you work within the limits of CO2 you can get some very consistent results.
