It was a nice review.  I was wondering how many shots you get out of your gas cyclinder per fill?  There is so little if none information i could find about this upgrade.

It really depends on the temperature outside.  If it's cold out, I get less shots but generally, I get about 8-10 shots before it starts to lose power.  I have a small 60mL Green Gas fill bottle that I keep in a mag pouch to fill it up after about 5 shots.  It fast, easy and convenient.

For a sniper rifle I guess that would be okay.  There would be no reason to have to take that many shots all at once and get in trouble, so i dont see any problem with that.  Thanks for the info Paco.

It's a BEC Gold Label 3-9X50.  I don't remember how much it cost as I bought it quite some time ago.  It has a sunshade on it, Butler Creek Flip up covers, an illuminated reticle (via lithium battery) and on the M24 it uses Tasco high-mount rings.  In the pics with the M40 it has those on it, but on the M40, I just use regualr scope rings.

Hey Paco, thanks for the review

I was wondering how much your gun cost when it was completly done with the gas and all.  I was wondering also what is the effective range of the rifle and the FPS.  This is also kind of like its effective range, but, what is the longest shot you have made on someone.  Nice Gun

Just a quick question.  What is the difference between gas and spring rifles and what makes either more practicle?  How does converting a spring rifle to a gas rifle make it fire different?
