Yes, any gun that can run on CO2, has the electronics necessary for high speeds and a fast enough loader will shoot at the same rate as HPA. However the shots will be less consistent, and guns like these are not common.
Yes, while playing, CO2 or other propellant is necessary to fire the marker. It is the CO2 that moves the paintball gun parts, and is what pushes out the ball at such high speeds. Taking the tank in and out will cause it to loose significant shots.
No there is no licence required to purchase/operate a paintball marker. In order to play you must be at least ten (at most places) and 18 to purchase a marker, balls, or CO2.
at Paintball arena in Fun Addaa, Pune you can play paintball using Co2 and compressed air as well, Co2 is used to give the paintballs extra pressure so that it can travell with a high velocity.
If you meant "why do you need any gas tank for Paintball": the expanding c02 or hpa is what pushes the ball out of the barrel at high speeds and can be used in reseting the gun. If you meant "why you need a C02 tank specifically": you dont need a co2 tank to play paintball. their is compresed air tankes available. most electrical guns must run on air enless you want to be doing maintenance on the gun after every game and replace parts after 5 games. most non electrical guns also can be ran on air but is capable of runing on co2 but air would keep your gun in better condition. You need co2 or compressed air(nitrogen and compressed air are the same thing) so the paintball can fly out of the barrel and to re cock your gun automatically.
No, paintball co2 is much higher pressure.
On a paintball gun C02, or High pressure air is necessary. It is compressed air that, when the trigger is pulled and the marker fires, propels the paintball out of the barrel.
Yes, it will not run on Co2
A paintball gun needs CO2 (or HPA) to fire at all.
CO2, stored in the tank is highly pressurized. The paintball being shot is caused by it being pushed out by the rapidly expanding gas. CO2 also cycles and reloads the next paintball.
A Co2 gun can go up to 300 fps. Sling shoots only get a paintball up to 240.
you need Co2 to fire any paintball gun, it is what physically moves the ball out of the barrel.
NO! only compressed air in a high end marker. otherwise you run the risk of freezing the regulator and solenoid which equals repairs. NO CO2!
