How CO2 Cartridges are made
CO2 is one of the best power sources for airguns for a number of reasons. I have been enjoying CO2-powered guns since I was a teenager, and Crosman was the company responsible for bringing us the joys of the CO2-powered airgun.
CO2 gas is a by-product of many manufacturing processes. It is used in so many ways, yet I've often wondered how the little cartridges that we put in our air guns are made. It is a fascinating event to watch the little "powerlets" being made, and I found this video on Youtube that takes you through the Crosman factory where they are made. Enjoy the video as you build your air gun knowledge!

The video will take several minutes to watch, but it is worth it.
