| It freezes at -78.5 degrees Celsius or -110 degrees Fahrenheit to make carbon dioxide snow. That is the actual freezing point. Pressure does have an effect on it though. Because of pressure, I couldn't give you an exact number. I'm sure you would be able to play in extremely cold weather, it just might not be very efficient to the least bit. |

HPA
You can switch Between HPA and CO2. You don’t need any modifications to the marker to accept a HPA tank, as long as it is a high output (more than 800psi) screw-in tank. Expansion Chambers do not help HPA at all, but don’t harm it either, you can leave you Exp. Chamber on your marker with no difference in performance. Regulators help keep the input pressure of your marker consistent, therefore preventing pressure inconsistency. Regs are not necessary for HPA, but can help out a lot just switch ------------- 98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to bonus ball these idiots put this in your sig. Proud owner of 3 guns and counting. |

Its all about how fast your shooting. c02 will even freeze up with its 70* outside if your shooting quickly. Bottom line, get an expansion chamber or regulator. |
