how long will the c o 2 last after you put it in ?( do they leak down? )

The little tubes or cartridges last about an hour or at least 150 shots and I've never had a problem with them leaking! It's a good pistol

I have 2 of these and love them. But, no, if your put the CO2 cylinder in correctly and oil the top to keep the seals in good shape, it shouldn't leak down.

My CO2 cylinder has been in the gun for over 3 months, and is still fine. My guess would be that as is it ages, it will last less, due to the seals.It's not a very expensive gun...............we'll see!!

Hi :) I've been using these along with Charlie Banana for 10 months. I tumble dry them on low. I've had zero problems with leaks or blowouts. I use a timed setting.... Low for 120 minutes.

In my case, about 15 minutes. Fifteen minutes into the first use, it leaked and failed.

If you setup and balance everything right probably less than 2 minutes or less however,you'll have some residual fluid leftover in the funnel hen done so find a pare container somewhere to put the funnel so it can drain while you wrap up\seal your containers. This residual leftover fuel may or may not filter and drain out as I've noticed when doing gasoline so, rather than wait I find a safe place\resealable container and dispose of it.

Not for long ,maybe one week or so I try to use the co2 the same day it makes sense the seal will flatten with time.

It will depend on what you are using it for. We drain it in about one minute using a C02 Jet Gun.

I am no an expert, but for my experince with my guns I put one drop of pellgunoileach time I install a new cartridge, I leave mor or less 6 weeks my crosman c41with cartridge installed and no problem has enough gas for more shots

Virtually any gun will have a slow leak. Don't count on it for more than an hour or two. If you get no leak you're lucky. Plus mfg 's don't recommend you leave it for long periods anyway

Long time so far. I am sure it depends on how often you open and close the valve. Standby mine have lasted 6 mo. so far.

I've had one for 2 months and it's leaking pretty badly. I used it daily, and stored it flat - I'm really bummed, but I guess they just don't last forever.

I am on my 2nd pack of 5. In each pack there was one that refilled a few times then the valves started leaking. The rest filled fine until the lighter died from other things. You must purge them before you refill them and always use very high quality butane else no lighter will work well when you refill them. The batch from last year was better than the batch I received just a few months ago.

From empty maybe 20-30 minutes. But you never let it go that low. I usually only let it get down to about 15-1600 psi and then refill. No more than 5 minutes for that.

Mine leaks like crazy. It will drain the whole reservoir on the shop floor if I set it down normally. The only thing I've been able is to store it so that it is laying with its oil cap and gas (+oil) cap facing the ground. I wish I had gotten something without the oil leakage and more professional strength instead. As far as oil consumption during use, a tank of gas might last 30 minutes and at that point it has used a full tank of oil as well.

Yes! I have two running at the moment for over a month at 1bpm and I think I will get another month out of them. I purchased the 20ozCO2 tanks from Amazon - they are a good deal. The combination of C02 tank and regulator by aquatic work well.

I leave a pump or two in all the time, it holds between use at this low pressure so far. I have left 1 pump in for as long as 6 months so that is as long as I can advise on low pressures. I have left it pumped to full power for about a week with no loss of power but not any longer than a week. The condition of the seals and such may also factor in at any pressure.

Not really sure. Mine dissolved rather quickly. I put them in my a/c closet. Didn't really notice much difference.

I have shot without emptying the cartridge and shot again the following day on the same co2 cartridge without noticing any leaks until empty.. Hope that helps
