Check out Smart Parts they have the Max-Flo 3000 dual system, you can fill with HPA or CO2 and has a built in anti siphon. Sounds like just what your looking for. Hope it helps. Razor : : Here's the deal. I have a 2nd gen shocker. Everything I've read is that these guns are better on CO2 because they are low pressure gas hogs, they suck down the HPA. I usually play in "informal" situations, we have a guy with a CO2 fill station, but nothing high dollar like HPA, so there would really be no way for me to get filled at the field. : : I want more than 20 oz of CO2 volume, but the biggest CO2 tanks I can find are 20 oz. I understand that I could purchase a 47/68/114 whatever size tank and fill it with CO2 just like my normal tank. : : Here are my questions, though. : : 1) What CO2 volume corelates to 47 cu or 68 cu? How much CO2 can I put in one of those tanks? : : 2) What modifications will I need to make to the tank? Will I need to remove the regulator on it and install an anti-siphon tube? (Shocker has built-in regulator) or can I just hook the tank up as-is and let the CO2 flow through the 800psi preset regulator? : : 3) Since CO2 is at a much lower pressure, will I still have to get the tank hydro tested, or could I use a tank that either needs to be retested or that failed its test? : : Thanks for the help : * First of all CO2is measured by weight not volume and you need to leave a 20% expansion gap. : Basically you can only fill to 80% capacity. : Any tank with a DOT, TC or HSE needs to be hydrotested at the prescribed interval. It does not matter if it is a Wrapped HPA, Steel or Aluminum; all must be tested. : Hydro2go
