I was thinking about using a paintball pistol. I found one that uses a 20 round and a 10 round magazine and a 12-gram CO2 cartridge. It also has barrel threads, for an extended barrel. The 20 round magazine goes out to the end of the extended barrel, so i am not for certain i am going with that gun.
