There we go 😂 I just commented on the pressures. That's why I originally thought a controlled heating element with thermistor to regulate the heat to a safe level. Also a saftey note to never leave co2 in a vehicle in summer. |

CO2 warning from Crosman. Do Not Expose to Heat or Store Above 48.9 degrees.  |

The hand ones go for hours, I'm assuming the body ones do too.
I'd check temps,diff temps for the different applications of them I guess. |

😂 that primitive idea is a pretty good one, I'm not sure how long they last but I know they get pretty warm. I think I'll pick some up from chemist wearhouse and see how they do.

I'm a bit more primitive than that.
I'd just put a couple of the handwarmer packets I got around the cylinder. ( they are some sort of chemical reaction, not unlike the ones you get for heating those field meals the army has) |

Billbobnz thanks for that it will help me figure out the plenum I will make it a bit bigger as I like to run heavier pellets.
kruzaroad it is a very nice little gun I was quite surprised at the weight too. The bottle heater is a good idea not sure what could be use as it will need some kind of thermistor to regulate the heating element but I'm sure someone with knowledge of electronics could easily make an insulated sock with heater using a lithium battery or something, it would be greate for night shooting. |

It's a sweet little gun too bb. I rather liked it. Was expecting it to be heavier but it's still preety light.
308, there was some one talking earlier in the year about putting a heating pad around the co2 bottle to control the temp veriation. What happened with that idea and if it became part of build I have no idea. |

565fps is with JSB Stratton Jumbos 15.89 grn pellets. These preform the most accurate through the gun.
