Hi, my brother owns a 2600 psi compressor. I was wondering since he has an adapter, if it would work with my tippy 98c? I dont wanna try this if its not safe, but would save me alot of money. ------------- -Tippy 98c -Polished Interns. -RD Double Trig. -5'' Drop -j+j ceram 14'' -12v revy x-board -SmartParts Grips -Pen Spring Mod -Milled Rear Sight -Filled Front Grip -Blue Paint job |

| Depending on the setup and the manufacturers' intended use, you could use it to fill up HPA tanks. Using it to power the gun directly would be dangerous, because unless you rig it to stop pressurizing at say a thousand psi it would overcharge and potentially damage the gun. |

if you were to regulate the compressor output or put a reg on the gun it'll work ------------- Evil PIMP Smart Parts ION 2-98 customs Ariakon Sim4 Ariakon Overlord Mech DragunFly |

if its gas powered, you could just mount it in a car, hook it up with regulator direct to the gun, full auto w/qloader (saw the vid of 31bps...thats nuts!!!)........that is what i call a "paint thrower"<<<please dont hurt me!!!>>>

| the qloader is capable of well over 31bps...its just limited by the gun itself |
