I have an old bb gun that runs on 8g c02 cartridges but i cannot find them in any store near where i live but i did find 8g N20 cartridges that fit the gun is n20 a suitable replacement for c02 gas?
I also have an 8G BB gun and I use the 8G N20 Seltzer cartridges in it and have had no problem. I also use "Crosman Pellgun oil" Or "RWS oil." I put a drop on the tip of the cartridge before I insert it into the pistol. This keep the pistol lubricated internally when the tip gets punctured. C02 cartridges have oil in them N20 cartridges do not.
