Did some testing on my co2 tank to air conversion today. I took my air pressure gauge off my paintball tank and screwed it into the burst disc on one of my 9oz co2 tanks. The pressure gauge threads are not a perfect match for the burst disc threads but were pretty close. I cleaned the threads after I tapped the threads several times…Read more

Yes, if I can pick up something at Lowes or make it I would. Maybe I will take out the hammer and cut some metal tubing to match the hammer diameter. does anyone have dimensions on the condor weight?

I sure wish there was a local store that had all the parts I needed for my talon; I hate waiting on things I order 😆

I have a stock talon ss that uses the co2 adapter with HPA. I know I need a heavier hammer and/or more spring preload to get the valve to open at a 2800 psi fill. Any quick diy tips on how to make a heavier hammer ? or use a stronger spring? and advice would be appreciated! 😛

I have tried zeroing my gun with them and it is almost a waste of time, but as soon as I try the kodiaks or the jsb predators, my sanity comes back! I think cromagnums are good for very close range targets only; anything out to 30 yards it shoots a one inch group at best for me. 🙄

I wanted more power so I took apart my regulator and by trial and error now have an unregulated hpa tank that is attached to the co2 adapter. The only thing now is the co2…Read more

Last month I took apart my co2 adapter and tried it on my HPA tank………the threads do not match, that would be great if they did. Maybe the tank can be rethreaded to accept the valve assembly?

This happened after only two refills. I use HPA mainly with a 3000 psi aluminum tank (47 cu inch )and a 68 cubic carbon fiber tank. Both of these tanks are “high pressure HPA” rather than the low…Read more

I do not yet have a chronograph, but I am sure it shoots faster than co2, but not fast than a standard talon tank (I have an SS). Oh yeah, I have used both a low pressure and a high pressure HPA; dont even waste your time with the low pressure tank. High pressure HPA tanks are usually…Read more

I usually tire out before the pump even gets warm; it sure is a workout. Getting past 2600 psi is nearly impossible and I put my entire bodyweight (195) into it! A scuba tank would be nice.

the Air Venturi pump seems to work well and I have pumped at least 1000 strokes through it. I am wondering if it needs to be lubed and if it can be rebuilt like the Hill/BSA pump? The instruction sheet from Air Force was very minimal 🙄
