Many of us start out with paintball guns that are cheaper. Just as a sixteen year old will often start out with a cheaper car instead of a brand new BMW, many new paintballers start with a more affordable gun.
Markers that are more affordable are usually powered by CO2. This power source works just find for many paintballers, but if you want all the edge you can get, a HPA tank is a better choice (but more expensive).
Upgrading to HPA (also known as compressed air) is a good idea for players wanting the best performance from their marker. The main reason to switch to HPA is improved performance.
What is improved when you make the switch? Well first of all consistency is largely improved. CO2 doesn't like to provide consistent performance during periods of rapid fire. HPA however, provides consistent performance during rapid firing.
CO2 has difficulty expanding fast enough from liquid to gas when you are shooting fast. No one wants to have their paintballs fly at unpredictable distances when they are trying to hit a target.
If you often play in the winter months using CO2 can be detrimental to your markers performance. You can think of cold weather as CO2s worst enemy when it comes to shooting it through your paintball marker.
Your gun can sometimes "freeze up" when you are unloading the paint in cold weather. The liquid literally freezes the inside of your gun and wrecks its performance, sometimes even causing it to stop working until it can unfreeze.
Do you sometimes have what looks like snow shooting out of your gun when it is cold outside? This is the telltale sign that liquid is starting to get into your gun.
The problem with CO2 is that it is in both liquid and gas form inside your tank. Gas is good, but the liquid is bad when it gets into the marker. When it happens, it causes poor performance. Compressed air tanks only have air inside of them.
If you want the best performance from your paintball gun, I highly recommend you switch and get a HPA tank.
