hey guys, i recently purchased a 12gram co2 inflator for my pneumatic cannons, and was wondering if it would work for constant air pressure for a vortex? it already has a trigger on it, so if i just stuck a schrader in the vortex would that be enough air flow?

No, it will not run for long. It will be expensive.
Yes, the gun may freeze up.

never thought of the freezing part, i wonder if cold bbs hurt :twisted: ?, and thanks for the information, lucky 12grams are only like 75cents each here,and it was just gonna be a sidearm in my unofficial airsoft matches
