PAINTBALL GUNS & RIFLES

The Special Force® brand is about precision filling of the cartridge. It makes a difference when firing off several rounds. Did you know that if you can take shots at a slightly slower, more accurate pace, that you will have a higher success rate?

Here's are 2 things you need to know...

#1 - AVOID RAPID FIRE

CO₂, when flowing quickly, will ice up the cartridge because the gas is trying to boil off into a vapor. It is stealing heat from anything nearby, especially the steel cartridge. If you rapid fire a 12g CO₂ cartridge it will develop a ball of dry ice inside the cartridge. No Bueno.

#2 - GO LOW & SLOW

Practice more precise shots rather than a flurry. Remember, a flurry of shots gives away your position on the field and ices up your cartridge.

The Oiler Cartridge

Each package has an oiler cartridge with 11.8g of CO₂ (instead of the usual 12g), leaving 0.5g for the silicone oil to keep your seals fresh.

Yes, we have taken the time to clean the inside of every cartridge to prevent contamination which can ruin your internal seals. It is the same process we use for our beverage-grade cartridges. Silicone Oil is added to one cartridge in each package. We use food-grade silicone oil, 0.5g per cartridge to provide a fine mist of proper lubricant to help your internal seals stay pliable and fresh. We are not claiming this is a miracle to stop leakage, but we are taking a common sense approach to effectively providing you with a sensible method to give your internals a fine mist of silicone oil.

Made in Europe

Our cartridges cost a bit more because we pay fair wages and provide lunch and amenities in our factory, unlike any Asian factories we have visited.

While that might not impress you, you will be impressed by the quality and consistency of our products. We have been making and providing these 12g CO₂ and 8g CO₂ cartridges since 1965. We also make about 128 other sizes and configurations.
