Hey guys, I've been out for a while, but I'm back. I searched for the answer to this, but couldn't really find a good answer so I'll just ask for myself. What is the largest, most durable tank you guys know of? And where can I find it? By largest I mean number of shots. Thanks guys. Later

Well the largest size tank is a 115cu. I'm not sure if anyone makes that size anymore but that would be the biggest if you can find it. The highest capacity would be a 115cu 5000psi. You'd have to put a PE or Evil Scion 5000psi reg on a 115cu bottle.
The most durable tank is a Nitro Duck tuff skin tank. They do not make them in 115cu size. The largest they make is 91cu. Before buying a huge tank, I would try a couple out first. You may find that such a tank would be burdensome.

EDIT: You'd have to get a bottle rated at 5000psi. So nm the scion or pe thing. They do not make 115 or 114cu bottles rated at 5000psi.

Crossfire and centerflag make good tanks.

The best nitro tanks are crossfire(preset) and evil scion(adjustable).

No, your wrong.  Their old tanks had bad regulators, now they use centerflag.  Secondly, they have good customer support but it is a forum based one.

wgp 70ci 45000 psi tanks (i own one) are available in regular and stubby versions, and cost only $194 @ pbgear.com compared to the dye tanks that are $217 for the same thing basically.

pbgear.com sells 98ci ones, but uh, i think most durable would be either a nitro duck roughskin or tought skin or something like that , or a steel cross fire tank w/ rhino covor..

steel=heavier/cheaper

carbonfiber=lighter/more expensive/ you have to buy a tank covor also w/ this one..
