I, for one, am still giddy with excitement from my first “Waltering”! 😀 I feel like a real TAG member now.

Seriously, again Walter I apologize for my tacky and crass statement. 😉 (I post my apology again as I didn’t get any answer to my first 😉 ) …just couldn’t resist…

Gippeto…that’s a great name!

Walter gave you some simple and good advice. Why not listen?

The tube on the 2240 is not pressurized, and no material specs have been published for it. (at least that I’m aware of)

Without the material specs, it is simply NOT possible to give an accurate and safe answer as to the pressure capabilities of the tube and other parts that retain the pressure.

If you insist on bulk filling your 2240, I suggest you have a tube made from materials with known qualities.

It’s the safe, and smart thing to do.

Walter is da Man, I look back on my first Waltering with a special affinity…I wouldn’t care if he punched me in the face as long as the punch followed his sound advice 😉

HPA is equivalent to CO2 on a warm summer day. Regged at 850psi it will be the same(ish) performance as CO2.

simplest way to supply HPA is with a dummy CO2 powerlet that will stick out the front of the gun with a Foster QC attached.
You would then connect the HPA tank with a remote line.

Someone can likely make up the dummy CO2 for you.
