co2 works great in an lpk. as long as theres a secondary regulator, youll be fine. you may just have to turn your reg or velocity up or down between the two.

do you have a secondary inline regulator? if you do, youll be fine. youll just have to adjust it a little for higher velocity.

you can use co2 in a lpkit set up,as long as you have a reg in front of the co2 so you can turn the psi down to 325 or so from 800 psi. I have done this with my set up and it has only one side efect. co2 tends to dry out your regs o rings and cause a leak,so when you switch back to co2 just put some pball oil in your marker and fire it a few times,so the oil will get to your guns o rings. you will be suprised at how well co2 will work.

If you want to run CO2 through a regulator, you should get a palmer's stabilizer. CO2 will destroy most regs as mentioned above. The stab works great with CO2 and HPA. Just keep in mind, when you switch them during play, your velocity will differ from HPA to CO2. You might cause yourself to start shooting hot. I would suggest getting a 68 ci 4500 psi tank (closest to 20 oz CO2 in size and shots per fill) and get it filled between every game if you have to.
