How about Liquid Nitrogen?
 Shrink the size of the propane tank, add on a liquid nitrogen tank, and every other shot use liquid nitrogen (expands to gas just like CO2 but cools much better) Or better yet, why not just suck liquid CO2 into the marker and use that every other shot? Hmmm.. Kinda defeats the purpose of using a propane marker to begin with though. |

Then there's the minor detail that propane and CO2 as paintball propellants operate on entirely different principals. |

use liquid nitrogen as a propellant, its flammable, and it will cool the chamber.

They make small tanks for that stuff? Can you imagine the expense?!?
The marker uses combustion to propel the paintball. Having a dual-purpose firing chamber that uses combustion and cryogenic gas for alternate firing would also be cost prohibitive and HEAVY. The reason to use common propane tanks is just that. They're common. The idea of using liquid nitrogen is dangerous and foolish. |

Actually, it's worse. The paint knife and paint thrower, while impractical, are at least plausible. Some of the ideas offered in this thread don't even have plausibility going for them.

In regards to cost effectiveness some sort of liquid cooling sleeve could be used to absorb the heat, like used on early machine guns to prevent them from over heating. The sleeve or insert could then be switched out with another one when it gets too warm, and while the person is playing the previous sleeve is given time to cool or has the coolant replaced. |
