CO2 format offers all the combined advantages of spring guns and precharged pneumatics, but without any of their disadvantages. For instance, unlike a springer, you can keep a CO2 gun cocked for as long as you want, without having to worry about mainspring fatigue. A CO2 gun is pretty effortless to charge up, too. No cumbersome charging gears needed, nor manual stirrup-pumps to break your back as with a PCP. You just drop in a self-contained gas capsules or, in the case of the TH78D, two!
You need two of the standard 12-gramme CO2 gas capsules because the TH78D,s returns upwards of 11ft/lbs of power at the muzzle. The capsules locate in the under-barrel chamber, and once you remove the cap and drop in the first capsule, neck-down, you follow up with a second, neck-up. Gassing up is easy; you hear a hiss that signifies the CO2,s released once you,ve tightened up the piercing cap.
Anyone who knows much about gas guns will be aware that this set up will give around four or five times more power than the single capsules produce out of pistols - yet, courtesy of its slow-release valve, SMK,s twin-capsule hunting rifle still returns around 50 shots per gas-up.
