Switch from co2 to hpa

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   If you switch from co2 to hpa would you have to reset a regulator or velocity? The reason Im asking is that I already have co2 tanks but if I ran out of hpa for the day and used c02 to finish would this cause any problems or issues? Thanks

	"Have to" is relative. Will there be a change in velocity when you change air source? Yes. Will a tournament mandate new chrono? Yes. Are you playing unsafe if you don't chrono? No. The variation might be enough to put you over the field limit or give you a (dis)advantage, but would not be enough to raise safety concerns. Generally speaking, if you switch from CO2 to HPA you will lose some velocity, anyway.

	No, but it may be a good idea to get on the chrono real quick and make sure you're in the right range.
	Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.
