Why do you need CO2 tank for paintball?

If you meant "why do you need any gas tank for Paintball": the expanding c02 or hpa is what pushes the ball out of the barrel at high speeds and can be used in reseting the gun.

If you meant "why you need a C02 tank specifically":

you dont need a co2 tank to play paintball. their is compresed air tankes available. most electrical guns must run on air enless you want to be doing maintenance on the gun after every game and replace parts after 5 games. most non electrical guns also can be ran on air but is capable of runing on co2 but air would keep your gun in better condition.

You need co2 or compressed air(nitrogen and compressed air are the same thing) so the paintball can fly out of the barrel and to re cock your gun automatically.

How much do paintball guns cost?

It's divided into about 3 different categories really.

How do you use a squeegee on a paintball gun?

A paintball squeegee is a device used for clearing a broken ball out of the marker due to the bolt cutting it and throwing paint down the barrel. Basicily it is what it sounds like it is a rubber o ring at the end of a stick which is stuck down the barrel then pulled out to clear the barrel. A variation of this is the paintball swab, which is my personal favorite, it is like a long q tip. that actually soaks up the paint in the barrel.

How do you connect a remote line from a 20oz Co2 tank to a paintball gun?

No. This is because the end head of the remote line does not have a valve. you would have to open the tank valve, fill it, close it, remove the remote, put it in your gun and then turn it back on. This would be more complicated then just removing the tank and filling it. If the remote line had an ending with a valve it would be easy, otherwise removing it would re-empty the tank.

Where can you fill up a co2 tank for a paintball gun?

Many of the retail sporting goods stores will have refill stations for your cylinders. Also, I have seen hardware stores that will do that too.

Ramping is when you achieve a set rate of fire, which will then "ramp" your rate of fire to a higher speed.

The answer will depend on the TYPE of gun, and there is no one answer that we can give you- except to look for some training in the safe and effective use of a firearm.

You can also send a message directly to my message board, and let me know what type of gun, and what area you live in, and we may be able to provide a better answer.

They are actually one in the same. There was never an orginial "model 98" only the custom series. The difference though would be found in the Tippmann 98 custom Platinum series with its easy to remove body.

Value can be driven by the make and finish of a firearm, such as a Merkel shotgun, or a Holland & Holland rifle, or how rare a gun is (there is reportedly ONE Pre WW II Luger pistol made in 45 ACP) or it's connection with a historical person (Gen. Patton's revolvers). It is reported that a engraved Colt Dragoon given by Samuel Colt to an Arab sultan in 1853 was donated to the Museum of Art, and is valued at $6 million.

What should you wear while hunting?

Wear a bright orange shirt. And that's all.

Wear camouflage pants & shirt, with an orange vest & a camo hat.

Is a spyder MR1 a good paintball gun?

Both have perks. Stereotypically players have always favored the Tippmans more then the Spyders. Because of their renowned durability and customization. the MR1 is a decent gun, though not the quality of a Tippman.


ever since 04 however Tippmanns quality has dropped (Ben Tippmann left the company and the board made changes to make more profit) the new markers are just as durable as the rest of the entry level market. In today's market the value has dropped out of tippmann since you can have a entry level spyder with as much if not more performance than a tippmann for less money
