Will an Impulse/Nerve be damaged by CO2?

[Skullpop]

Will a Nerve gun, made by smart parts, be damaged by a CO2 tank with an anti-siphon tube? They come equipped with Max-Flo's.

-Or, will an Impulse? Generally, are low pressiure guns damaged by CO2? Is a Nerve a low pressiure gun?

 

[chazman]

it will work but i wouldn't do it if i was you they choke on it and some mosture will get in the gun

 

[Skullpop]

Would they be damaged though, as that's ultimimately what matters here.

yes it is a lp marker & as far as i am aware putting co2 through it will screw up the solonoid.

Yes. It is generally not advisable to use co2 to run on any high end marker as they damage internal and cause seals and o-rings to break often. Plus you dont get the consistancy output pressure with co2 as you do with air. Pretty much most people will advise you to get air not co2. I run my impulse on air and have had zero problems touch wood.

hope this helps

That does help!

more info on your Implulse.. You run it on CO2, with a anti-syphon tube? Do you have a Max-Flo on it? Does this help the consistency, right?
No damage you say.. I could probably buy an Impulse with a max flo, and use any propellant i bump into! Btw, what's a Low Pressure Regulator do in terms of CO2?

All the info you will ever need on an impy found here http://www.impulseownersgroup.com

Agh.. So i can't use CO2 with a max flow?

Yeh pretty much dude. Air is better anyways. co2 is dirty!

iv pm'd you on what i know
