Noob after advice

[Pikey1981]

Hey guys just thought I'd introduce myself and ask a quick.question iv just got myself a piranha gti from a bloke at work (I know it's an oldish marker but I love it lol) for a pretty good price it came with 2 hoppers and remote hose and also.a co2 bottle my problem is there are no markings to show if the bottles in ticket so my question is where is the best place to get a cheapish bottle with a bit of ticket on in time for paintfest

Cheers guys

@Pikey1981 - I assume by "ticket", you mean test.

Any one of the retailers on the top of the page will be able to sort you out with a cheap little aluminium air bottle (not CO2, it's better for your marker). If you're at paintfest, look for the guy in bright red with a bow & arrow setup (me) and come say hi

Hmm Im not certain c02 bottles have a test date, its been a while! @tommikka

cheap aluminium air system will be LOADS better, if the GTI takes air.

Hope it was a pretty good price as they are £120 new with c02 bottles. https://www.thepaintballshop.co.uk/product/Mayhem Starter Kit

Yeah it was a lot cheaper than that m8 lol

Yeah, it'll take air ok. We ran a few of them as site markers for the odd occasion.

 

[Pikey1981]

Ok this is.probably a bit of a stupid question but will.an air tank take co2 or visa versa?

 

[snips]

no it will not .

 

[emisnug]

Not a stupid question at all.

CO2 tanks take CO2 only.

HPA (High Pressure Air) tanks take air only.

 

[Pikey1981]

So would it be best to get both? Simply because I know some places only use co2

 

[snips]

Depends on what you think you'll use most. Personally I'd get a 3k air bottle and rent a Co2 tank off the site if they letyou .
