You are the dumbest idiot i have ever seen you loser if you bought a paintball gun you should know how to plug in co2. If you don't have a paintball gun then why are you asking.
All you do is take the tank and screw in into the paintball gun till it wont screw in anymore ok P.S. u need to get a life
The parts that make up a carbon dioxide tank is designed differently to handle the pressures for carbon dioxide (and also because under pressure carbon dioxide turns into a liquid) and cannot be used for a high-pressure air or nitrogen tank.
For a variety of reasons, you wouldn't want to do this.
Paintball compressed air systems typically use 3,000 PSI. A CO2 tank can only hold about 1,800 PSI. Liquid CO2 replenishes the pressure in a CO2 tank, but air cannot do that. So you would get only a very few shots before the pressure was too low to propel a paintball (800 PSI or so).
Second, most air compressors can only compress to 200 PSI. That's not nearly enough to propel a paintball. So you couldn't even do it without very expensive special equipment ($5,000 and up). A CO2 refill station costs about $200.
Third, CO2 evaporates replenishing the pressure. Air can't do this, so the pressure would drop after each shot. To keep the pressure constant (and prevent the high pressure in the first few shots from causing the gun to explode), you'd need a special regulator.
Of course, you can have all these things if you buy a nitrogen or compressed air tank. These are made to handle 3,000 PSI or more and these include a regulator. But again, you cannot fill these with common compressors, several thousand PSI is needed.
Screw it in to the air source adapter, which is located on the bottom of the grips.
When it is screwed in all the way, it will push down the pin valve, releasing gas into the gun systems, allowing it to function.
your question doesnt tell me what is going on, you screw in the tank to fill the marker with co2 but if that is not happening then your tank may be empty, if the marker will not fire I can not help you without further information but try cleaning it out and oiling it, a lot of times that will fix it
Take your CO2 tank to a fill station and have it filled. Then look at your gun for the ASA (air source adaptor) which is underneath the grip, usually with a hose coming out of it. Screw the brass threads of the tank into the asa, and make sure it is tight. You will hear the CO2 enter the gun once you have turned it enough to open the valve. Your co2 is attached, and you can now play!

Where do remote coils for paintball guns attach to on the paintball gun?
Where the air tank or co2 tank normally attaches
How do you refill a co2 tank for a paintball gun?
Take it to a shop! if you want to do it yourself the normal way is to put the bottle on scales and fill it from a larger bottle to a fill weight. To be honest though CO2 is well out of date. A smart move would be to move onto compressed air.
How can you convert you paintball gun from CO2 to HPA do you need a regulator with your tank or just the tank can you fill it yourself?
if your tank runs out take it to your locale paintball field thay should fill it up for you for a small fee exp=5$ unlimated air for the day at my field.
Does the Paintball Etek 3 AM use a high powered air tank?
Yes, it will not run on Co2
Is HPA air tank rechargeable?
Yes! The purpose of an Air tank is so that you can refill it. Almost any Paintball Field or store can fill your tank.
What do remotes do for paint ball guns?
Remotes allow to mount your air or co2 tank of your paintball gun.
How does a CO2 fill station work?
A fill station is a bulk CO2 tank, a fill hose and a scale. They are used by trained air smiths and paintball field employees to refill empty Co2 tanks. First the tanks are purged of all remaining Co2, then carefully refilled and weighed. If you are not trained on how to do this, do not attempt, at the risk of breaking the tanks burst disk or damage to you by the extremely cold gas.
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)
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.
Is there a difference in a scuba tank and a paintball tank?
Yes the main difference is a SCUBA tank is used for high pressure breathing air (3200-5000 PSI). A paintball tank has a lower PSI rating and is also measured in ounces not PSI. Even though most people use a breathing air compressor to fill paintball tanks.
Is it ok to use an electronic air pump to fill an HPA paintball air tank?
No! That would be very very bad! There is no place to put it in and you could blow out the top of your tank.
How do you refill a compressed air paintball tank?
To refill a paintball tank, you must first go to a paintball field or store with a paintball air compressor. You can't refill them with just any home depot compressor, it takes serious pressure to fill these tanks. Find the fill station with the same pressure as your tank (3000, 4500 or 5000 psi) and hook up the fill hose to the fill nipple on the side of the tank while it is attached to your gun. Then press the lever or button in until the gauge on your tank or on the filler is at the correct pressure and release. Then unhook the fill hose.
