get a tank cover which will help your co2 from freezing, and expansion chambers help let the liquid co2 expand into the gas that shoots the paintballs, thus helping reduce the chances of frozen co2. but if you shoot too quickly your co2 will freeze. |

Paintball is the best sport no matter what anyone says, and if you cheat you get beat. Snipers rule!

Expansion chamber and don't shoot too fast. I would assume if it gets too cold your paintballs could freez. Other than that, dress warm so your balls don't freez. |

Would help to get paintballs made for cold weather, or at least try to keep them insulated (in a cooler or something). |

Well I wouldn't use C02 in the Winter because it would freeze up your gun. Get compressed air, that won't freeze up your gun. The use inferno paintballs. They won't swell up or anything because of the cold.

That will make it worse. Co2 draws heat from the outside air as the liquid boils into gas, thats why your tank gets cold. Thats also why co2 doesnt work very good in winter, because there isnt as much heat in the outside air to make that change more effecient. Putting a sock or some other insulator around your tank simply prevents the tank from drawing ANY heat from the outside air. Its simple physics. |

well if you put heating pad things on the tank then it will help from the co2 freezing because the tank will be absorbing the heat from the outside. but if it gets too heated it could expand too rapidly and explode. either way get compressed air or dont play in winter.

you dont have to worry about the tank freezing because co2 freezes at -70.6F. but this are good idea tho the expanding.
