is the gun .68 cal and can it use compressed air?

Yes it is a .68 cal. Also I think it can use compressed air as mostly all paintball guns can use both co2 and air. Sorry if I couldn't help much, also this gun is really nice and lightweight, I would recommend buying it! :)

Yes it is .68 cal and it shoots best with compressed air co2 can mess up your gun and I don't recommend it and compressed air last long.

This gun works great on co2, that is all I have run threw it. I'm new to paintball stuff and this was a gun for my son. I would think compressed air would function just as well being the same psi.

Its a break barrel, so when you bend the barrel down (break it) to load it cocks the internal compressor, and then you just pull the trigger to fire it. Velocity around 500 to 600 fps...best guess.

Avg Air Consumption: 4.3(CFM - Under Load) That is from Aircat site. I have a 60 gallon compressor and this thing is awesome on it. My big compressor wasn't wired in at my new house yet. So I needed to pull a wheel off wife's car. I figured I would try my small 3 gallon compressor in a pinch. This thing took each lug off within in a couple seconds. It had 3 lugs off before compressor turned on. Its an awesome gun for the price. I paid more than this for my first snap-on 20 years ago.

It's powered by nitrogen compressed by a single pump. GREAT rifle. Only downside is that the trigger is lousy, even when adjusted. Fortunately, there are aftermarket trigger kits available. I shoot 25 grain pellets with it. Very accurate aside from the trigger.

The gun will use either CO2 or HPA, I'd reccomend buying a cheap HPA system as it will run better. You can refill high pressure air tanks for the gun at a local paintball shop, scuba shop or by using a scuba tank on your own. Ninja paintball makes an adapter for about $35 that attaches to a scuba tank and is rated for 3000 psi.

The gun is operated by air. You will need a compressor. No batteries needed.

No, Its a BB gun. It shoots .177 round steel balls using compressed air (carbon dioxide) cartridges which are purchased separately.

Steve, I don't think so. Using this gun I tripped the thermal overload on my compressor motor while painting 12 kitchen drawers. The compressor being used was a 2HP 20Gallon tank rated for 7.8CFM@40psi / 6.3CFM@90psi.

No it is not, the air tank the air rifle has is bigger than any CO2 catridge. Also, an air rifle always will have the same air pressure, the CO2 doesn't, you will be losing power after each shot during the CO2 catridge lasts. My advice, is to try to shot from different positions until you get used to it, it won't make any difference if you learn how to calculate the distance from the target knowing how powerful the rifle is.

It holds the air and will be needed. This gun is good for many different project and I have been able to spry really thin lines with it. You just have to make sure the air pressure is set to the proper setting like 15 psi,20 etc in order for it to work right. Too much or too little air can and will effect the quality of your work.

yeah it is a .68. I've fired well over 3,000 paintballs and maybe chopped 5. VERY reliable gun.

Regular compressed air will not have enough pressure to operate this gun. The gun will only operate with CO2 or HPA (HPA = scuba or paint ball compressed air) 700 + lbs per square inch.

It is a great compressor but it has a 50% duty cycle my guess is that 5 to 7 CFM continuous at 40 PSI would make it run continuously or more than the 50% duty cycle. It is fine for low volume guns like air brushes and you might be able to use it with an LVLP sprayer if you only sprayed intermittently.

Yes but the cone in the gun itself is super small so it clogs really really easy! The compressor is awesome, but I'm going to invest in a better gun down the road!

.68 Caliber. This information is also on the Tippmann website where you can double check.

No, it's not man. There is a model for pellets though. These are nice guns. If you buy / or have bought one, do the following:I agree with Robert ..........get yo'self a bunch of extra "bullets" (that hold the BBs), and for sure for sure, some speed loaders!! Dump out 6 emptys & in one motion load 6 full ones.....Bam!Happy air-shootin' ---be safe.
