i was thinking maybe i should get something like http://www.actionvillage.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/en/-/USD/DisplayProductInformation-Start;sid=9tuA1PXA29WAA7ZgnjBAfP8J_qrkjsEcbXo=?ProductID=UpysFAY7kcIAAAD3j1mlA_2t# - this
as backup just in case i run out of air on the field. i've heard 12
gram cartrigdges are not good for semi autos. but i figured if i was
just going to take 1 or 2 shots it couldnt hurt. what do you guys think? ------------- Hail to all the nazis on this board. facism lives on! (sarcasm if you cant tell) nobody likes a

Why would you bother for 2 shots?

I think you should play entire games with that thing installed in your vertial adapter, with a tiny hopper. That would be way cool for making your gun more compact. If you're talking woodsball, it's a pretty good idea. If you're playing speedball, well... I don't think it would be quite as usefull. However at some fields, they make you get off the field if you run out of air, so it would be a good idea just to stay on to draw fire and make the other team think you're still a threat. Do you have a pack where you could keep this thing? For $14... why not. I'd have fun with it. -------------

Yeah, I wouldn't expect much from a 12g on a semi.
By the time you unscrew your tank, screw in the adapter, and then screw in the 12g... you're out. |

i might just get it to try to conserve shots and be more stealth. try to play like a c-3 player for a change. ------------- Hail to all the nazis on this board. facism lives on! (sarcasm if you cant tell) nobody likes a

20g on a 98 generally won't even get 20 shots from what I've heard.

| Just get a 20 oz tank. It should last. Maybe carry a 9 oz out with you if you play woodsball. I've thought of doing that. |

Dont bother with it. I use a 12 and carry a 9 with me just in case. It works well and because I dont shoot a lot, it lasts most of the day. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

If you are playing woodsball I would recommend buying a pistol like a Zeus. |
