CO2 capsules are a key power component for many models of air rifles and air pistols. Thanks to their standardized size and ease of installation, these capsules provide consistent pressure, which translates into uniform bullet velocity. Combined with the right type of shot, CO2 capsules allow optimal shooting performance and precision. In this category, the following are popular BB shot, which is distinguished by its spherical shape and is commonly used in replicas for recreational use.

For users looking for more variety, shotgun shells are available in different calibers. The 4.5 mm shot is the most common option, perfect for both sporting and recreational shooting purposes. Alternatively, 5.5 mm shot and 6.35 mm shot offer greater weight and impact force, which works well for shooting at longer distances and for hunting small game under legally permissible conditions. These calibers are favored by users who prefer a more versatile use of windcheaters.

For more advanced users and specialized applications, the following is intended 7.62 mm shot i 9 mm shot, characterized by considerable weight and impressive penetration power. This type of ammunition is used in advanced models of high kinetic energy windguns. The appropriate selection of shotgun shells and CO2 capsules allows not only the optimal use of the equipment, but also to adjust its parameters to the individual needs of the user, regardless of the level of proficiency or the purpose of shooting.

Frequently Asked Questions

1️⃣ What is a CO2 cartridge?

A CO2 cartridge is a type of cartridge containing compressed carbon dioxide, in the case of military products used to power air rifles and some types of ASG replicas. The most popular type of CO2 cartridges are models containing 12 grams of compressed carbon dioxide, however, we can also find cartridges containing 88 grams of CO2 on the market, designed for replicas with high gas consumption.

2️⃣ Which CO2 cartridge to choose?

The difference between CO2 cartridges from different manufacturers is negligible and, as a rule, the price will determine which model we choose. Kolba military store offers branded cartridges from the renowned manufacturer Umarex, which, with a capacity of about 70 shots, will meet the expectations of any recreational shooter.

3️⃣ Can a co2 cartridge be left in the gun?

Leaving an unempty CO2 cartridge in the gun is not recommended - the compressed gas exerts pressure on system components, resulting in increased wear. On the other hand, if stored for a long time with a capsule, it may spontaneously empty. The exception to this is T4E revolvers and shotguns equipped with a unique system that allows the weapon to be stored with an unpierced capsule ready for use.

4️⃣ How many shots does a co2 cartridge last for?

This is, of course, dependent on the design, however, a CO2 cartridge in a windcheater should be enough to fire about 70 shots. However, it is worth remembering that additional systems, such as, for example, the simulation of the breech recoil - blow back - also use CO2 as a drive, so in such cases the efficiency of the gas cartridge can be significantly reduced.
