AKA Sidewinder with CO2

I would like to get a AKA Sidewinder to go on my 99' Cocker Pump. But the thing is I would mostly run CO2 through it, and I read in a few places that the Sidewinder doesn't do well with CO2. Is this true?

The manual says CO2 is fine, with some caveats:

Does anybody else use CO2 with this regulator?

I've used CO2 with it, but I ran anti-siphon CO2 with it.

You CANNOT get liquid into the reg, or it will be damaged.

Better off with a used Stab. They can tolerate liquid much better, and they're just as good of a reg as a Sidewinder. Sidewinders really only excel with a good HPA system.
