Im sure that i must have read this here somewhere.
but has anyone ever tried an electric sock on a co2 rifle in the winter? i'm curious to see if it would do anything at all. perhaps even imbed it in the stock of a qb78?

I've heard of people using the electric sock trick, never tried it myself though.

I think it also depends where you shoot.
I shoot in my crawl space where the winter temp drops into the mid 40s and I have not had a problem with my co2 pistol. But it is a match pistol, and the velocity is not high to begin with.

anything to warm them up a bit will help when it gets cold out.
