Just wanted to float this idea by a few of the experts.
Do you think its possible to add a second Co2 tube to an airgun using a Y adapter with a valve switch to switch to the second Co2 when the first runs dry? |

| it's possible but unlikely...unfortunately the force on the valve would be incredible making it very difficult to operate. |

| Why not extend the existing Co2 tube and add a second 12g caplet? |

So basically it can be done if we eliminate the valve?
I will be starting to mod a 1077 and I was going to build a custom stock for it and I thought it would be kool to house an additional C02 cartridge in it.
I would love to find some pics of the innards of some of those PCP guns. |
