Okay, don't kill me if this has been suggested, because I read the FAQ and forum guidelines and I searched for it. Has anyone ever modified an A-5 so that it runs on propane, because I like how propane is cheap, it doesn't freeze, and you get tons of shots, and I'd like to be able to use it in my A-5 so I can just spray and spray and spray Thanks Bahhumbug |

Yes this si the 50th thread on this idea. NO YOU CANNOT DO THIS. When the C-3 uses propane it ignites and that is what proples the ball not the actual propane. It is not like CO2 or Nitro. And please do not try it. ------------- A-5 R/T Double Trigger Expansion Chamber Remote Hose 16' WERKS Barrel Polished Internals Trigger Mods |

The C3 is an entirely different mechanism than the A-5, not simply a different air source. They are not interchangeable. ------------- [IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/aag8s8.jpg"> |

Get yourself a C3 so you can use a propane. ------------- I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying.

I honestly don't care either way. Co2 works just fine and I get free fills so whatever. |

I think I'll take recommendations from someone whose grasp on the english language is somewhat more firm than yours. ------------- ? |

The plus to tippmann making a propane powered marker was consistency and number of shots off of a tank. Though the consistency is the same as HPA. |

Language and sense of aesthetics are pretty unrelated. I consider myself pretty competent at use of the language, and I also feel that the C3 is hideously ugly. It somewhat resembles a blowdryer for your hair that crossbred with a ski pole, and then fell out of the ugly tree. Actually, for that matter, the look is strikingly remniscent of a few of the brass eagle markers... ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I have a cordless nail gun that uses Propane cartrages for pressure and it doesnt ignite the gas. It sparks every time i fire it and it never explodes, and i can drive a ton of nails with a cartrage the size of two D size batteries! ------------- Dopa mi la tempesta (After me, The storm) |
