X7 Phenom

I wouldn't bother with the 48/3k tanks honestly.  you'll be lucky to get 500 shots off of one, and you're not going to want to carry multiple tanks around and switch em out in the middle of a game.  You're gonna spend what... $70-80 on two of those tanks, I would save the little extra cash and get at least a 68/4500.  

i get a 2000 box of balls but i only go threw about one bag of them a game and i still manage to hit anouph targets. im not a guns blazing guy i just stalk everyone and sneal atack, call it what you will lol and thanks for the help. i carry a pack with me anyway with 2 20 oz co2 and if i do this ill have 2 hpa, so ill be more then ready to run out of hpa.

i was planing on not carying them sorry i wrote it out different then i thought. i ment id keep 3 in the car and just take one out, you never knwo wholl need another tank anyway, to many time dicks said they filled my friends co2 tanks and they were completely empty,thats why i go to aa local paintball store to fill up. but does co2 work good in an x7 phenom?

mines an electrical e grip, its not the mechanical version, they were 1 time used on e bay for 300$ from a paintball store who rents them out, i got a good deal.

The flex valve in the Phenom is designed to work on either compressed air or CO2 without problems.  This valve is used in both versions so mechanical or electrical doesn't matter.  (The problem with using CO2 in most electropneumatic markers is not the electronics so much as the potential for CO2 icing in small hoses and causing damage/blockages.)

ill just get the 2 hpa air tanks then, the guns supose to be very good on air anyway right? and i use a remote line once in a while but i often go to dive and the thing kills your back,pluss its not confertable. so a smaller tank on the gun would be good to.

thanks for all your help guys. i have one more question, ive been looking into a  barrel kit for my x7 but cant find any that work on it, i herd a barrel kit helps the acuracy of the paintballs.would anyone be able to help me with this?

The J&J or Lapco Bigshot barrels are good ones that one break the bank. They run around $30 usually and work wonderfully.

hes the guy  i got my phenom from lol

i have a big game 10 vs 10 in a month and everyone has a semi auto, so i hope this gives me an advantage having the phenom electrical. and i have the 2 hpa tanks book marked from him
