Two things:

This is true in theory for an “80 cf tank” in the SCUBA world. However,

I still have it and plan to get it running again “soon”. I put
it and the rest of my shooting stuff in storage about eight years
ago when I took a job that required me to stay in Massachusetts
much of the time.

It’s supposedly a flamethrower compressor. I have one but
haven’t used it for a few years. However, it worked well when I did and
it was well worth whatever I paid.

I bought it after going back and forth on the FX compressor. The latter
had just become available and was selling for something…Read more

the problem is the 3rd stage seal.

The are two power levels, but you’ll probably want to
shoot on high unless you’re just fooling around. On high
you’re looking at maybe 7-8 from a 3000 psi fill before
POI starts to drop too much.

If something is off I’m sure somebody
will correct me. Assume all this is done slowly enough so
temperature isn’t a factor.

Say you have a tank that holds 1 cu ft of air. If you now add
another cu ft to the tank the pressure doubles. Add
another cu ft and the pressure triples, and so on.

Atmospheric pressure is…Read more

First off, sirjeigo’s gun is regulated to a constant 1350psi.
CO2, if there’s a mix of liquid and gas and some space for
expansion, acts sort of like it was regulated to the constant
850psi quoted. The AirForce guns are not regulated, and who
knows what a tank pressure of 3000psi means by the time
the air reaches the…Read more
