What does the co2 cartridge do?

it is a pressurised aluminum cylinder whos purpose is to provide compressed air to the pellet gun in order to "fire" the pellets at your target

The C02 is under pressure. When pressure is release it propels the pellet, pushing it out of the barrel. Similar to a spring that is compressed and released. It provides the energy to your ammunition, causing the pellet to fly from the gun. They will run out of compressed co2 so you will need replacements.

It has a siphon valve that means liquid co2 will go in the soda buy one with out a siphon valve

It seems that after one session of 50 or 60 shots you need to change the CO2 cartridges. They seem to leak if keep them in the gun overnight! Great gun very accurate and it's very quiet.

If I remember correctly it comes with only one CO2 cartridge and one magazine. I ordered a large package of extra cartridges and a package of two extra magazines. They are very handy to have.

About the same amount of carbonation at first. However, the difference is that the last glass of the siphon is just as good as the first. Buy co2 cartridges in bulk.. Saves money

The cartridge contains enough to inflate my 25mm tubes/tires to be firm enough to continue the ride. With some CO2 left over.

It is recommended to put a drop of oil (like Pellgunoil) on each CO2 cylinder outlet before loading it in the gun, but sooner or later the cartridge will lose pressure if you leave it indefinitely in the gun. Anyway, it is not recommended to leave any CO2 gun indefinitely with a gas cartridge inside because the gas seal may become damaged.

I am using it withe the edgstar, I have been having difficulties keeping my c02 working. I am not sure if it is from the Keg or my cartridge. My co2 has been leaking.

You may purchase the CO2 together with your order so you can try it out as soon as you get it. I buy my CO2 cartridges locally which saves me storage space since I buy it only when I need it and an easy return for defective cartridges. I have not purchased any CO2 cartridges from Amazon.

It appears to be a hard plastic. As for CO2 cartridges, they can be purchased online via Amazon or found in most kitchen type specialty stores.

The co2 cartridge goes in to the magazine it saves alot of space. The body is all metal and the magazine is all metal which is amazing. Hope that helps.

No. The core holds a 12gram CO2 cartridge. The Core is reusable and the outer shell is a one time use. Check out some YouTube videos of how they work for more details.I had to, even after i purchased some, to figure out how to arm it. Have Fun!

I would suggest writing to the manufacturer. Depending on when you bought it they may replace it.One common problem is that people don't tighten the set-screw enough when they install the CO2 cartridge.

Louder than others would lead you to believe, especially if it's quiet at night. I shoot one in a building behind my house and my wife can hear me shooting when she's inside the house. So it does make a bit of noise. As for CO2 - no, you can't remove and reuse the cartridges. Also, removing a charged cartridge will lead to excessive CO2 discharge that may fry the seals. Leave the CO2 in a few days until discharged, it won't hurt.

I have had it for maybe 2 years now if I pop a co2 cartridge in it, it will shoot fine but I don't shoot it that often just for the record and the co2 runs out progressively so your shots become less and less accurate as you shoot

The co2 from brewing will create enough pressure to force the liquid out first, since the intake valve is at the bottom of the tank. The co2 cartridge is really a propellant, push the liquid out but not altering the co2 content of the liquid. You want to have o2 in the tank for brewing, but once you "tap" the tank, clear the lines, and "charge" it with co2, the o2 is gone and it won't ferment

Yes, you will need to buy 12gram Co2 cartridges; also, the 12 outer casings are NOT reusable.
