OK i saw this post somewhere and this guy said that a Shocker will get more shots off nitrogen instead of compressed air. Is that true ?!?

No. Nitro/HPA is basically the same.

In case you want to hear it from two people, that person ahead of me is right. They are practically the same thing:rolleyes:

As nitrogen is usually less dense than high pressure air, you should get slightly less shots from it. It has to do with the pymodial pressure on the concave inner of the tank. Expect somwhere around 50 less shots with compressed air on a 68/45 tank.



In case you can't tell, I'm being sarcastic. If you need a 3rd person to say it, the two people above me are absolutely correct. High Pressure Air and Nitrogen are similar and will deliver similar shot counts.

They as a fourth they are right hehehe. But if your going nitro then I suggest an 88ci/4500psi tank you should be able to get around 1100-1200 shots off of it.

With my 88/45k I get around 1100-1200 shots with it. So I would think that you would be in the 800 shot range. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Also, to get your 20oz. with anti-siphon and on/off It cost me 25 for the smart valve on/off and another 5 or so for the anti-siphon.
