Gday guys,
me and several mates have just purchased the afore mentioned markers, we are perth based and forming a paintballing squad. We'll be making our base at the WASP field in northam most likely. Anyway...

We have purchased basic starters kits, in this came a 12 oz bottle, empty of course will look at having a local paintball field fill this. im wondering, and as an engineer this is probably a stupid question but, when attaching the bottle is it necisary to use an appropriate sized spanner to tighten the gas bottle into position or is the pressure exerted by twisting the canister with your hands enough?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, i can use my webcam to take pictures and send you if you need a better idea of the question i am asking. please email any reply's / information too shafty_69_@hotmail.com or requests for pictures.

Kind regards
Brad.

Well i dont mean to offend you by saying this but... I realy think you should go and spend some time at your local feild helping out or watching so you can learn the basics of what your doing with co2,markers,paint ect as you dont realy sound like you have played/messed around with markers ect much before.
