I'm probably going to eventually get one or two for my WE P14 (same mag) from redwolf through airsoftparts.

Unfortunately, that mag is currently out of stock.

Well crunchmeister's answer pretty much spells it, best to answer if you actually have used a CO2 with a WE Hi-capa or other CO2 guns (Though won't help much) if not then you might just be leading the questioner on a wild goose chase.

As for long term reliability you can only speculate

I've used a WE Hicappa 4.3 with both propane and CO2.
Velocity: according to my "how hard it sticks to my Crossman gel target" test, the CO2 mag did not result in much of a velocity increase... it was not shooting as hot as the 317 FPS Luger that I also used with the target.
Rounds per cartridge: at room temperature, I was averaging between 85 - 93 shots per 12 gram powerlet.
Cold weather performance: much to my suprise, this really sucked. Of course, at the temp. that I was shooting at ( -3 to - 5 C? Not sure, it was near the end of October) my pellet pistol did not perform much better. I suspect that the GBB aspect of the airsoft pistol caused the problem, as I have read that otheres have had good luck with CO2 pistols in cold temps. (NGBB, I'm guessing). In fact, after about five rounds of rapid fire on one fresh cartridge it died... when I popped the cartridge out of the mag, I heard something rattling around inside it. Turned it upside down... little white pellet stuck in the opening of the cartridge. I watched it sublimate.... dry ice!!

I think these mags would be great for folks who put a lot of rounds thru their pistols in the summer. All one needs carry is spare BB's, and possibly an extra cartridge or two in one's pocket. With two mags, one could fire over 150 rounds without having to change a cartridge!

(As always, individual mags and guns may vary.)

Which means, there can be damages to your gun.

Depends what you have in your gun.

yes and will rember their is a lot of vairents that make co2 redy guns and non co2 vs of the same gun for instance kjw makes sig co2 redy and m9 redy ones and non co2 vs of the same gun. so rember if using them make shure if its co2 redy and its safte to because all of the guns have diffrently designed blowback chambers and specific parts to lower the incresed wear the parts will endure beacuse the power of c02 is stronger.

uncompany also has them... but Ehobby seems to be the cheapest...
