Perhaps.  I had my doubts about a cheap Chinese knockoff micro servo pulling 
the trigger of my marker as well, seems to work fine.  If you have a .68 
caliber marker, a 20oz CO2 bottle, a door lock actuator, and five pounds of 
wood to encase it all, a servo would be much too small.  I would guess that 
my turret would weigh about five pounds all told, maybe even less.
