ok, i got a new a-5 2 months ago. i love it, except for one problem, i'm getting about 500 shots with a 20oz co2 tank. i figured maybe an expansion chamber would help, so i know have one on it. this is really pissing me off because i'm still getting about 500 shots off. should i use comp. air? what should i do? any sugjestions would be nice. thanks |

It could just be that you're shooting too fast. It happens to the best of us. To stop this get HPA. |

Nitro is HPA.... a 72/3000 tank will get you around 720 shots. Thats the closest to 800 you'll get without buying a tank that gets over 1,000 |

remember that you need a new system for an a-5 for nirto cause it isnt high pressure out of the box. and if you have a R/T the gun will suck co2 pretty bad between the trigger and the cyclone

I have the same setup- yes it seems like a air hog! But I just figured
performance has it's price... To offset the price of fills ( $5
for a 20 oz. where I live ) I'm going to buy or rent at least a 20 lb
co2 tank and pick up a 32* valve setup so we can fill our own at home.
I agree some places it seems I get 1/2 fills? The place I use now
I get a really good fill... I asked how they get such a good fill? They
put a little co2 in the tank and bleed it out which cools the tank, so
when they fill it, it gets a good fill?
