Air or CO2?

[Luke W]

Can anyone help me, as a newcomer to this sport I don't know much about all the technical things so can somebody explain the difference between air and CO2? Which one is better and which one should I use?

Simple answer is Air.

CO2 is very temperature dependent, usually stored in liquid form - and can very easily freeze up bits of your markers internals.

Air is virtually inert - so no real danger other than the high pressure it's stored under (like CO2 or Nitrogen).

If you can afford it - go for an air system.

Do you know anywhere where I can refill an air bottle? I was planning on attending the Sunday walk-ons at NQ. Do you know if you can refill there? If so, any idea on the price?

im pretty sure you can fill air at northen quarter lol,
and filling up costs will be covered in the green fee

NQ does provide air, included in the green fee
