It is nitrogen...you are correct on that.

Looking at your link as well made me kind of wonder what you guys use for cartridges?

We have the silver 21 feet ones for summer use, and when winter rolls around we use the green 25 feet XP darts to help with thick winter clothes/jackets. Only reason we use two different ones it the price is quite a bit less for the 21 footers.

The cartridges I used were the green 25 foot extra penetration dart ones.

Then they'll ban wool jackets, and those puffy Alaskan orange vests that gangsters wear when it's 90* out.

My instructor told us that if we can't get a solid hit upper body that a leg shot will usually work, but if they're moving on ya- good luck!

Glad you're safe!

What's the shelf life of the cartridges? I may or may not know of someone with a couple of the yellow ones...I know they have a use by date...but so does the can of beans I have in my cupboard.

They are only 6 months old. No issue there.
