Possible problem

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

   I finally found a gun I love, my F8. I haven't been able to play much because of 2 broken ankles since I bought it(3total). 

I found out tonight that since I've been out, the only local PB shop closed. The nearest one is about 50 minutes away and it's a field that attached to a somewhat-amusement park, so it's super over-priced. 

That leaves me with Dicks Sporting Goods and no HPA fills unless I find a scuba shop. 

So my 3 HPA tanks will soon be useless unless I go to a field that's a long ride away..., this leaves CO2. 

What guns do you guys suggest? I'm not really into tippmanns, and I guess spyders are fine. 

I'm thinking about a Classic Mag with either a Hyper Frame or rig up a spyder frame. 

I'm super bummed.  Suggestions?

	I tried CO2 in my Classic and it didnt really like it much. Especially if you get a hyperframe. I am surprised that living around Cleveland, you don't have more choices. How far are you from Akron/Hubbard area? There is an awesome field there called Battlefront.. I guess I don't feel so bad now. I live in a little po-dunk town and have to drive 45 minutes to Fort Wayne to get fills. Was always jealous of you city slickers. lol. Have you tried www.pbreview.com to see if there are any other close fields? Edited by oldpbnoob - 02 October 2009 at 10:02pm

	I'm in a suburb of Cleveland, and there used to be quite a few around, just not anymore. And I'm fairly far from Akron. Definitely not worth the drive just for HPA. I'm bummed, haha. I've always wanted to try pump, but, I wanted the pump to be a spare...

	Well that sucks, sorry. Don't the fields where you play have HPA? Or do you mainly play renegade? I know everyone hates on SP, but they do run on CO2.. Also I was thinking about it and I can;t remember if the Lvl 10 bolt is compatible with CO2. It could have been the problem. Good luck.

	We have a lot of land and a friend of mine has an airball field. Hmm, I did like the feel of my friend's old Ion with CP trigger. Of course, that is the gun that had a CO2 tank so frosted and cold that the one kid licked it and it kept part of his tongue...

	Really? I thought classics ran with CO2, bummer. Even with a Palmers? I may look into a cocker. I've always thought they were interesting.

	Ive ran my classic with C02, but it never liked it. Never tried it with a palmers. I would definitely NOT want to run C02 with a hyperframe, unless you control your shooting..
