Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Modifying a 8 Gram CO2 cartridge for external air?

I've seen a "dummy" 12g CO2 canister, that allowed you to plug in an external HPA source and use it via that way, haven't seen any 8G ones though.

( http://www.iisports.com/product.asp?...2&dept_id=3311 )

I'm curious if it would be feasible to drill and tap an adapter into a spent canister and gas it up that way? A little DIY project.
Nothing crazy intense in terms of PSI, say ~120-130 at most.
I hear they are apparently full at ~800-something PSI from the factory.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advanced.
