^Me?

Uhmm...no I'm not.

Like jigglydude said, your gun requires ATLEAST 800 PSI to work, 200 PSI is not near enough.

It would not be enough pressure to recock, no, but it would send a paintball a few feet.

Thats kinda a given. But the paintball wouldn't fly very far at all, and most likely not have enough force to break.

air compressors dont put out the cleanest air either.  You might get a little water and stuff in your gun....

i tried to do that with my 98 custom it wouldnt recock but it did send the paintball 15-16 feet. IF YOU TRY THIS GET A FILTER. if you dont get a filter it will gum up your gun!!!

^^correct me if im wrong^^

Well, couldnt you get a Low Pressure System from Tippmann and put it on there, so it operates at around 200-300 psi?  But yea, that filter idea is a must...

My Custom Pro E operates fully at 400 psi. It recocks and shoots far and shoots consistantly.

200 PSI is not too much pressure

well, as long as its already bumped up...
don't do that because the gunk the tank will send into your marker will not be fun. the tank has mucky rusts water inside it depending on the last time it was drained. if its your dads in his garage, its probably never been drained before. ick!
