ok, I'm getting a new gun, so I better know exactly what the parts are on the gun. Couple of simple questions.
1. What is an o-ring? (something to do with tanks)
2. I have a big C02 tank, but how do you use the adapter to fill your tanks?
thanx
An O ring is a ring for sealing the contact between the tank and gun. I get the field to fill my tank up.

if you really want to know i will tell you.
You cannot blame me for the consequences and I directly advise against filling your own tanks.
1. attach fill station to your bulk syphon tank.
2. ready your weighing scales
2 1/2. close the fill valve and the bleed valves. (IMPORTANT)
3. attach your tank to the fill adaptor
4. open the bleed valve and bleed the air out of the tank
5. close the bleed (IMPORTANT)
6. place the tank on the scale and make sure the scale reads zero.
7. open the fill valve and fill until the tank weighs a little under the maximum rating.
example: if it's a 9 oz tank fill it to about 8 ounces or so.
8. Close the fill valve quickly
9. begin unscrewing the tank until the pinvalve is disengaged
10. when the pin valve is disengaged open the bleed again.
11. YOU'RE DONE!
