I'm really surprised this mod worked and you didn't kill yourself. CO2 is really cold for plastic.

Anyway, whats the actual name of the regulator you bought, I've never heard of one being able to pull a 12 gram down that far.

well
good for him
if he did it leave him alone
just send flowers
oh and i found a story about brass eagle blades::

We were out at our regular field when a 10 year old boy and his grandfather showed up. The kid had a blade. Grandpa just wanted to take the kid out for a day of fun. Well the little guy was watching everyone else, and noticed really quickly that he was not going to be able to play with his blade. So, my team felt really bad for the guys, and asked them to go and play a few games. I had an old phantom pump stock class that I went out with against little guy and his blade. Well, I got tired of standing 65 feet away and not even being threatened by the litte dude, and I figured I had to shoot him to end this torment. I thought the only good place to hit him was in the gun. It wouldn't hurt the kid, and I would feel a little better about it if I did it nicely. So, I took aim, squeezed the trigger and WHAM!!! Watched as the little dude was showered in paint and blue plastic shards! The damn thing blew up in his hand! I hit the thing right by the 12 gram, and I guess it just put too much stress on it, and it exploded. Everyone who was watching was laughing so hard, they almost pee'd in their pants. I ran to the kid to see if he was ok. He was in shock, and was going to cry. After getting him off the field, the guys on my team all coughed up $20 each, and went to the "shack" and got the kid a spyder compact. He was happy, and the Grandfather was very thankful that we showed concern.

Hell, I would d to have it on video tape! It was the funniest God damned thing that has ever happend to me! It was worth the $20 I gave the kid.

I give it a 10 due to it being the funniest event of my paintball life! thanks Brass Seagul for a once in a lifetime event!!!

[n00bishness]But wait, don't paintball uns have c02 that pushes a bolt which has a paintball on it? or is it raw c02? or am I thinking about bolt-action? I'm confused.[/n00bishness]

please forgive that. I'm not familiar with paintball general designs. but please answer. So, since the c02 is replacing he pump, it's filling up the air bladder, right?

[CharlieLeader]

no. it replaces or bypasses the air bladder. the hose goes from the regulator to the trigger. if you take it apart youll see what im talking about.

sorry i dont remember the brand name, and its behind alot of tape plastic and epoxy. ill ask bravo if he remembers it.

[Ares]

AH. I see now.

[Talio]

Is it a paintball regulator or industrial? Thats at least a start, if it's paintball I didn't know they made them.

[CharlieLeader]

pretty sure it was paintball

[BravoLeader]

I am not too familiar with Paintball Gun Technology, however, the pressure regulator is for Paintball guns, and its, if i recall, an auxillary purpose. It was a used regulator and did not have a manufacturer;s name on it. But it was purchased at a Paintball Gun Shop. Hope this is of help.

One way to use a paint ball gun without modding it at all is to fill the barrel with a bundle of q-tips. Use only fresh ones. the range is limited but it creates a nice cloud of death in a shot gun sort of way.

Given the tendancy for Paintball guns to shread foam, has anyone tried putting something behind the dart to absorb the inital blast. Maybe a half inch of 5/8" foam backer rod behind a mega stefan?
