    CO2 cartridges

    Having recently acquired a pistol powered by 12g CO2 cartridges, I need to source a decent supply as the gun tends to whizz through them at a fair old rate. They seem to come at various prices depending on brand and I was wondering if there are brands to be avoided or are they really all the same?

    Nothing to be avoided per se, but some have slightly different neck shapes that disagree with certain guns - which pistol is it?

    I buy my CO2 caps in bulk from JSR on the bay, and have no problem using them in a wide range of CO2 pistols.

    You shouldn't be paying more that 35p per cartridge.

    Thumbs up

    It is a cybergun, I can see their branded cartridges on the JSR website for under the target price quoted above.

    Thank you.

    Mini Uzi, I was tempted by the 1911 Witness as I have heard such good things but I already have a GSG 1911 which is also good fun.

    Good choice, great fun but particularly CO2 thirsty for moving that massive bolt.

    I reckon that it puts about 1.5 foot pounds out of the muzzle and 2-3 into your shoulder!

    Try a crowd called CO2 Cartridges; 300 costs a £100, works out at 30p each, and even cheaper at 500!
    It's not the destination; but the journey that counts!
