Want to improve your CO2 tank and make it the best it can be? Ill show you three ways to get better performance and a longer life out of your CO2 tank.
If your paintball tank has a normal pin valve, you are missing out on the convenience of having an on/off valve. With an on/off valve on your paintball tank you can screw in your tank, turn on the valve to gas your gun up, and then when you're done, simply turn it off.
Pin valves shorten the life of your o-rings. When you unscrew a CO2 tank with a pin valve, the left over CO2 in the gun will often blow out around the tank, making an unpleasant hissing sound, and sometimes ruining your o-ring. An on/off valve makes it more painless to remove your tank. Simply turn off the valve, shoot out the remaining CO2, and unscrew the tank. It will save your o-rings, and it will get rid of the annoying hiss.
Anti-siphon kits do wonders for a CO2 tank. The problem with CO2 is that when it is inside your paintball tank, part of it is a liquid, and another part of it is a gas. In the case of CO2 and paintball, gas is good.
CO2 exists as a liquid and a gas in your CO2 tank, and when your gun starts running off of the liquid, its performance will suffer. An anti-siphon kit will help make sure that the gas goes into the gun and not the liquid CO2.
To keep your CO2 tank scratch free and in pristine condition, you can buy a neoprene CO2 tank cover to cover your tank. It will protect it from dings and from normal wear and tear, and can even help your tank grip your shoulder a little better.
To get the most out of your CO2 tank an on/of valve will add convenience. You'll be able to easily turn on and off the air to your gun, and you'll also increase the life of your tank o-rings.
An anti-siphon kit will help fuel your gun with CO2 gas, and not CO2 liquid. This will help your gun perform with better consistency.
Once you have all of that on, protect your CO2 tank and keep it looking new with a neoprene cover.
