    Sorry you've not had a response there tyrone03. It's not that posters are unhelpful around here, it's more to do with the fact this is a very quiet forum with little "through traffic". Unfortunately I would not have a clue about your question myself.

    We have recently appointed a new mod to the forum and if posters start showing a bit more interest in paintball then hopefully queries like your own will attract a some replies

    Hi tyrone,

    You're question is also a little ambiguous. What specifically are you having a problem with? Are you unsure about installing the Co2?

    Did you acquire a manual with the marker when you bought it?

    If not don't worry. This may be of use.

    If not, there's a few more here. You might find one for your specific model (The 'Rebel' one's are halfway down on the left.)

    Don't forget to stick the barrel sock on before you go fitting anything together.

    I'm not aware of different fittings for UK and IRL.

    If you still have trouble getting set up, try and get down to a paintball site/meet-up near you. You'll find plenty of people more than happy to help out :)

    As far as I'm aware fittings do not change from US to UK to IRL and beyond. However there are different fittings/adapters for certain different things. Bottle some bottles require adapters which can be bought from as little as 5 euro. Nothing major.

    You could pick up a scuba tank and fill station. Those can be filled at a variety of places.

    Alternatively, get yourself down to a paintball site/shop.

    Something like this might do you for the meantime, but it's a poor short term solution.

    Are you based in Tyrone? I'm not familiar with any sites out that way. http://www.letsgoawol.com/ is in Co Monaghan
