Yes, but it is highly recommended that you use HPA instead. CO2 with this marker may cause re-cocking issues as well a pressure spikes. It will defiantly cause a decrease in pressure consistency. It is recommended, if you need to run CO2, that you use an anti-siphon tank or a vertical tank with remote line to decrease liquid intake.

∙ 14y agoYes, any marker that runs off of CO2 can be run by HPA. However most CO2 markers require a higher output pressure than markers that can only run HPA.

∙ 14y agono, and do not try it is a very dangerous idea, the CO2 tanks are not built to handle the kinds of pressures the HPA tanks are

∙ 12y agoCo2 guns can use air tanks, however guns meant to run on HPA should not be switched to CO2

For a paintball rifle is CO2 better than compressed air?
No compressed air would be better for accuracy as well as your gun. Its like co2 but at a higher pressure with cleaner air and no liquid that can damage your paintball marker.
Does Davis paintball in CA have a co2 filling station for the all day compressed air?
Yes, it does.
On paintball guns What do the CO2 Systems do and why do you need them?
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.
How is co2 used in paintballing?
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.
Is a compressed air paintball gun the same as a CO2 paintball gun?
Yes. High pressure Air tanks (HPA) is compressed air, which is mostly Nitrogen. "Nitro" is not what HPA they are called, unless you are talking about Nitrous oxide, which is used in anesthetics and motor racing.
Will the dangerous power g3 paintball marker accept compressed air?
Yes! in fact, it will not work on CO2 at all.
Do all paintball guns have the same tank?
if u mean the tank that you put your shoulder against and what powers it. no u can get co2 or compressed air (compressed air is better for your gun)
Is a paintball gun a pneumatic device?
Yes. Paintball guns are definitely pneumatic. They run on compressed gas, Co2/Compressed air, and use the release of that gas to power the mechanics inside and propel the paintball forward toward a target.Information provided by Bullit Paintball teamcaptian: Nolan M.
Why do you need CO2 tank for paintball?
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.
Does a dye paintball gun take CO2?
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!
What is the difference between compressed air and n2 in paintball?
"Air", "Compressed air", "High Pressure air", "nitrogen", "N2" and "Nitro" are all the same gas, these are just different nicknames for it. The correct term is High Pressure Air, or HPA. Since air is mostly Nitrogen, it is given other names. The Air also contains CO2, but in paintball Co2 is separated pure liquid Carbon-dioxide, which is incompatible with HPA tanks and guns.
Will the Kingman MR1 paintball marker accept compressed air?
yes, any gun that can shoot CO2 can shoot N2, but not always the other way around.
