Questions and answers

Which is better for a CO2 air pistol?

Both fit standard 12g CO2 air pistols and airsoft guns. The Umarex C1250 states about 20 consistent shots per cartridge, which helps you plan usage; the APS set states purity and pressure instead.

Is the APS set worth the savings?

At $29.99 versus $39.99 as of November 4, 2026, you save about $10 per 50 cartridges. The trade-off is no stated shot count and a less familiar brand.

Do both fit the same guns?

Yes. Both are 12g cylindrical CO2 cartridges, the standard size for most CO2 air pistols, rifles and airsoft guns.

Which lasts longer?

Cartridge life depends on the gun, temperature and shot count, not the pack. Umarex states about 20 shots per cartridge; APS gives no figure, so expect similar performance from a standard 12g fill.

Are these sealed cartridges safe to store?

Yes. Both are sealed 12g CO2 capsules; the APS set states 250 BAR pressure and 99.9% purity. Store them cool and dry and pierce only when ready to use.
