H U N T E R--B O Y 2 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 So ive looking at Co2 air rifles and seen that loads off people convert them High pressure air Once a rifle is converted to high pressure air what are the benefits? and do you charge it like you would a pcp?

moxy 617 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 You basically remove the little co2 cartridges and fit a dedicated bottle. Which, yes. Will effectively turn the gun into a pcp. Giving a higher and hopefully a more consistent shot count. Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 To add. Some if not most converted rifles may require internal workings. I don't know what the pressure output of a co2 bulb is but I doubt it's anywhere near 100 bar plus. I may be wrong. Quote Link to post
Tron 173 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 CO2 when stored is in a liquid state on release to the atmosphere it turns to gas with a pressure of aprox, 800 to 870 PSI. (Depending on outside temperature. Quote Link to post

You can get regulated air bottles on which you can adjust the output pressure to replicate CO2. For example the Guerrilla Myth air bottle here... http://www.rap4uk.com/Guerrilla-Air-MYTH-13ci-13-3000psi-Tank-p/ms805-1pi.htm You can balance the output pressure to suit the gun!
