Hello, I was just wondering if I could use compressed air on my Tippmann 98 Custom. I noticed that in the cataloug it only said Co2 but I have seen people using Compressed air on their Tippy 98's already. If I can use Compressed Air what kind of tank should I get for it? Would a 47in 3000psi work, as thats what I want to get?

Thanks in advance for all your help!

Dustin

Yes, you can just screw it in, and it will work when your gun is stock, you won't need anything for it.  The output pressure of the tank is around 800 PSI, and that's the same for co2.

Yeah it will work stock ,and if you ever use nitro you can use that stock too.But I recomend a high presure kit too ,to make the nitro mor effective.

That makes no sense, I think you mean low pressure kit.  It really doesn't help that much, it just makes your tanks have a little bit more shots, and makes your gun operate at a low pressure.  It's not worth the money.

All you need for HPA is a high-output HPA tank. Thats it. Please save up for a larger tank! Your better off not using it altogether if you get that size. Youll get under 450 max shots from it, just enough for a single game. You will regret it. Get a larger one like an 88/3000, or 68/4500.
