Co2 Gas ?

jimwu · July 20th, 2016, 04:04

Hi ! I just got my kjw m700 , so can I use co2 gas on it ?
The original is using green gas so I wonder can use co2 gas or not ?
And if use co2 gas what do I need to pay attention for it ?
Tks

You can not charge a green gas mag with straight co2. It'll go boom in your hand. I don't know if they have co2 mags for it. If you do want to use co2 on the g&g mags, it will need to be regulated down off a tank & remote line tapped to the mag.

Those mods all run HPA and if you want to modify your mags for CO2 you might as well get an AEG

Hi ! Thanks for reply but I own the kjw m700 sniper , that's why I ask this noob question

I did own an aeg which is custom build my own one , I didn't own any GBB rifle so its no point to mod it , I just want to know if the original mag can stand for the co2 or not that's all

But still thank you for your reply and info

cheers

Excellent rifle by the way...if I was going to go with a gas sniper, the M700 is certainly on my list. That said, if green gas is delivering the FPS and is readily available, why not stick with it? There's lubricants in green gas that will keep your gun working properly and require very little maintenance, whereas CO2 will dry out seals and such requiring a little more work.

There's no denying the punch of CO2, but if you don't really need it, why do it? For the same reason I love my 1911, I guess...it kicks like a mule!

Shot to shot consistency with hpa tapped mag much better than propane & easy to fine tune fps. Who still uses green gas?

True on the consistency, but I prefer not to pack a tank. I still see lots of green gas rifles in this part of the world....also for the reason of not wanting to pack a tank. Personal preference I guess. In my case, my sniper is a spring gun. Simple, reliable, gets it done.

If I'm reading that right, it sounds like the gas valve is sticking. Are you using green gas or propane?

Hectic · August 3rd, 2016, 18:46

Seems like as said above the valve is stuck. You can move it with effort? Then you may be able to take it out and soak it in silicone oil that may repair it. Or just buy new valves.
