Does it matter?

Hey everyone,
I was just wondering when it comes to CO2 air rifles, using CO2 air cylinders.
My dad rides road bikes and uses a 16gram CO2 cylinder to fill up if he gets a puncture
Could i use these with a air rifle?
I dont know if you can get more or less grams.
Thankyou
Dan

probably not.
I used a Crossman CO2 air arm over 20 years ago, It took Crossman CO2 canisters I bought from Mick Smith in Sydney.
back then I was quite surprised at how cheap a pack of 10 canisters was... about $5.
They lwere exactly the same as your Whipped Cream NOS bottles... but in CO2.
They did not have a thread around the neck like yours.
The Tyre CO2 canister might also be internally different, maybe a internal regulator of pressure valve to limit air release.
You are dealing with pressure and a firearm... I would only use the suggested CO2 air canister

You can get unthredded ones,
yes true point about the safety issue, better not to take the chance
Just the thing is, i don't even know if i have seen a gunshop that I've been too that sells these canisters,
What gunshops ship/post products?
I think you cant post these by plane though
