Air systems?

[Paint Bulley]

OK, I use C02, some use Nitro, and others Compressed air. Evereyone says nitro is the best. Why, what is it that makes it better,does the compressed air do much? And not it makes your gun better because of this and this (but that would be good), also what is it about the gas if you know.

Thanks

Compressed air and nitro are the same. Air is over 70% nitrogen, and thus for paintball works the same as Nitro. Nitro or CA doesnt expand as much as CO2, and there is no liquid Nitro or CA. YOu get more consistent velocities. Your o-rings will last longer. CO2 is dirty and will leave gunk in your gun. Co2 is abrasize and will over time damage the internals of your gun. Nitro and Compressed air is just better in every respect

Nitro/Compressed air is worth the money. Like Twicho sed, more consistancy, like no more velocity spikes, o rings last ALOT longer, and your internals last longer.

What do you have to do to your gun before you switch from Co2 to CA? anything?

I agree with the people that say nitro and CA is better than co2. However a lot of people criticize those who use co2, even though nitro and CA arent nearly as available as co2. A lot of people dont have the option of going nitro or CA!

Acually Nitro is more redally acialible than co2. More paintball shops have co2 fill than those with both. But nitro fills can be done at scuba shops and i believe some fire stations.
