I've got no local sites within 50 miles that use air as their propellant, they're all C02.

I live in hertfordshire.

I'll have one of these converters then. You have a PM!

So everyone needs that converter, but no-one sells it?

Oddly enough, Dive shops tend not to stock up for paintball players, they kind of supply stuff for diving! Though perhaps if enough people persuade them they could be a little more..........divers(e)

There's still a large market for these, and yet no manufacturer makes these?

Interesting.

Because the fill rig is the paintball standard...

Tom just has too much time on his hands, just don't mention air fittings or he'll open the other side of his coat....

Whoops, of course, i forgot the fill rig concept.

very few people with their own kit don't have access to paintball air now..... either from bulk tanks on site or dedicated compressor....... If all of the local sites run CO2 (there has to be one running air)..... what about your marker? What is it? If it's low end it'll probably take Co2 no problem. If it's high end....... why aren't you playing tourneys with it?
If that's no help, then approach a site about getting air..... doesn't cost too much and will pay for itself if they can offer "air for walk ons". They are already getting CO2, so air is only one more tank. (somethng like £18 rental and the same for a fill I think....... that's for a massive bulk tank).

It's an Angel LCD, i dispise anything more than woodsball! It's not as exiting otherwise, not as much happens, and it's allways the same thing.

I goto dive shops now.

 

[JoseDominguez]

So you've played all other forms of paintball? well done

You do need air for the angel though..... co2 no good at all. Try getting an air tank ordered in at a site. Otherwise it's a dive tank... which I wouldn't recommend anyway.
Our local site didn't run air last year when we started the team up......... now they have a 4500 paintball compressor and a sup air field (and a second woodsball site)...... amazing what you can accomplish in a short time
So who are you playing against with your angel? is it punters using infernos etc???
This would explain why you aren't keen on moving into tourneys.

LiPS have a shop in Welwyn Garden City, Hertsfordshire, which isn't a million miles from you. They also have a site which runs walkons once a month with 2500-3000psi fills at Hertford Heath Hertsfordshire, which, again, isn't a million miles away from you.
