Hey, i'm planning to buy a pistol (havnt decided yet which to get).
I've seene in the reviews that 12gr co2 will be enough for 25-35 shots...

12g aren't tanks. They are disposable c02 cylinders, the same kind used in stock class pumps, bb guns, and emergency bike tire pumps. You can get them at walmart, 25packs for like $13. And in most of them, unless they are pump, you will be lucky to get 30 shots at full velocity. Probably closer to 25.

Or on some you can mount a small CO2 tank to the bottom of the grip frame and run a special adaptor into the gun.

But then it will be the same size as a normal paintball gun, defeating the purpose.

How much you get per 12 gram really depend son velocity and temperature. You should get about 20 though.

Some pistols (Like the Zeus G1 and G2) have a bottom line kit that you can also purchase. They also have a Hopper Adapter if you feel like turning it into a main gun.

If you have any other questions on paint pistols, feel free to PM me
