    Hi , I dont see people talking about Co2 Guns much.
    Are they not bought much because of co2 cost or is it that green gas just lasts longer and its easier to get??
    How do yee find the performance of them in comparisson to gas guns?
    If both were at same price aswell as co2 and gas... which would you prefer to buy a gas gun or a co2 gun?

    CO2 lasts longer than green gas i think, but its just so hard to get... but CO2 guns seem to be better quality usually

    well because its compressed gas it has to be ground shipped and by air it would be dangerous and yes they are good and powerful

    alot of co2 guns are just too powerful, there are few that are under 1 Joule though

    then the cost of co2 is a factor, you can buy co2 capsules online for 1 pound sterling each, but then when you add in cost of shipping it's just bloody expensive, green gas/propane is a much cheaper option tbh..

    It's just down to availability of propellant really. Not to mention the vast majority of airsoft pistols use gas. You can go to your local B&Q (not so local for some of us), buy a bottle of propane for cheap enough and you're set.
