None of those guns you just listed will work well on CO2. I don't see why the SLG wouldn't, but on the specs I read it said it requires compressed air so I would believe that.

Your best bet may be an e-framed 'Cocker. You can get them for a very fair price ($200-$300) off eBay, PbN, and the like. That is, unless, you're willing to go blow $800 - $1000 on an e-mag.

For any marker with a high rate of fire that you plan on using CO2 with, I'd reccomend an anti-siphoned tank in addition to a Palmer's Stabilizer, but if for some reason only one of those choices is viable either one would help.

Have you considered an A-5 with RT?  Not electro, but very, very fast, and will give you no trouble with CO2.

Bad Yomillio. We shouldn't suggest things to the newer players that could blow solenoids if not properly set up. It would take a lot of money, and a lot of Palmer's goodness, to rig an e-'cocker for CO2.

I didn't think you could run E-mags on Co2 either.

Actually, you can't. Yomillio, er, you're a bit wrong...

Bummer. I was tired and had some brain lapses... No excuse, I know. E-Mag is well duh, you can't do that. And in my tiredness, on the e-'Cocker I was only thinking of the electronic 'noid that trips the sear, not the forward 3-way 'noid. So yeah, I suggest no one listen to me anymore. Its probably a bad idea.

On a side note though, how much more do you think you need than an anti-siphoned tank and a Palmer's stab? I know Smart Parts (terrible example, I realize) used to say that you could run just anti-siphoned CO2 through the Ion and it'd be fine. Wouldn't that with a Stab cover it pretty well? I have no idea since I have no expirience with either.
