after doing test after test I have been running into many CO2 pistols that are failing or are shooting hot out of the box. there is NO WAY to tell when a co2 gun is about to fail or check the gun between shots after the tempature changes resulting in a huge swing in FPS. we have had some guns come in at over 900FPS and others start at 395 out of the box and wend up as the temp has.
so as of now all CO2 guns or guns with CO2 mags will be banned here.
green gas or propane guns will NOT be banned as the gas is more stable then CO2.
many other fields have banned CO2 and I am just bringing the field in line with what the rest of the country is starting to do.
the safety of the community FAR outweigh any reason that this action is being taken.
I will NO LONGER be selling and new CO2 pistols, and will be disposing of the ones I currently have at near my cost for target practice guns only.
thanks for your understanding dave

I might be interested in one of those Elite Force 1911s, as a gun to mess with.

is there a possibility the ban will be lifted during colder months when the propane and green gas aren't strong enough?

I was under the impression that the existing glocks were okay to own and sell, and the only restrictions was that no more could be produced. Also, nbustarhymes, you can get a co2 blowback glock, under a different name for obvious reasons, for $50. It is a tsd I believe, however, the only place I've seen it is airsplat and as you probably know, they have an iffy reputation.
