i do but i sell co2 seals for both guns
you'll find that guns that presurise the tube have no issues with a cart left in but with gun that use a face seal it can indent it causing premature failure
guns with a face seal have the cart pressed against a seal and the gas is contained by the seal
What type of seals do CP2's have - ?
Looking for TO-6 Trigger unit unmessed with or T0-6 kit for 34
Also - what guns pressurise the tube - that would be super helpful !
I never quite grasp CO2 stuff !

The face seal is reasonably obvious as you can generally see it when you insert the CO2 bulb. It is a synthetic seal that the face of the bulb butts up against with the piercing pin through the centre of it.
The likes of the Umarex made Walther CP88 and S&W Model 29 amongst other feature this type of face seal, whereas the likes of the drulov DU10, Tau 7 and Lov21 pistols use the pressurised tube type seal.

People who have been there focus on the fundamentals. People who sit at keyboards all day focus on the trivial and inane.
You'll be fine leaving the capsule in for a couple of days or so. Just don't leave it for prolonged periods
most modern co2 guns use a face seal
older ones like the crosman 150 160 400 600 and the xs78 xt501 also have a pressurised tube
