Coleman propane tank and mag fills

[aznpos531]

Has anyone ever counted how many mag fills a green Coleman propane tank lasts (approx.)?

I think that would depend hevily on which gun. because some have heavy slides so they need alot of gas to cycle and so the mag will need more in order to fire all the rounds and some mags have 20 rounds while others have 30+.

that's true, also some mags hold more gas than others, I don't usually keep count

That's kind of a insignificant point though, considering the huge capacity of a Coleman tank.

But I really have no idea how many mag fills a Coleman tank lasts. A LOT.

heh...yea I know it's a lot. I was just wondering out of curiosity.

I would loose count simply because I also fill my m500 shotgun plus the tanks gets taken to a game where I tend to share. Also, it'd be even harder to calculate since most game day fills are not complete fills but rather top ups.

I've been filling from the same coleman on two different guns since January to give you an idea of "A LOT"...and I shoot almost daily.

I'm more on the lower end of the spectrum.

I play an average of 3 times a month. I have a KSC Glock 19 GBB, with two magazines, and a KJW Beretta 92F GBB with 4 magazines. I typically load 15 BBs in each magazine. I also share my gas on a frequent basis (pun intended), and I use my pistols a great deal.

A coleman tank can last me 4-8 months.

Even when I had my WA M4 GBB, I don't think I even went through that much more (I always brought 6 magazines to the game). The M4 was clearly eating up more gas, but I always seem to have more left in the tank than I think I should have (until eventually it goes ka-put).

You can use propane to fill GBB and not need green gas? and where would i pick up that adapter that fits onto the propane tank that allows me to fill up clips?

Instead of using the colemans, could you use the blue bernzomatic tanks too?

[GSK88]

If it's the same as regular propane it should be fine. I think they all have the same size threading, so the adaptor should work. I take it you already have the bernzomatic ones and not Coleman? If you're in doubt just go grab a few Colemans, they're like $3 a piece or something and guranteed to work.
