with the coleman tanks, you turn them upside down to fill your mags, to get the liquid into your mag instead of the surface gas. I am unsure if there is a safety valve on the 20lb tanks that shuts it off when inverted. I have always presumed them to be similar and will only work if you can have the liquid flow from the tank into your mag. otherwise, you'll note a short fill and not shoot an entire mag of BB's.

edit: If I don't got up to wasaga tomorrow, I'll test it out. I have an adapter hose that I fuel my portable grill and propane stoves off of with a 20lb tank.
