No, I think that it is fine how it is. If you had 2 it would be way to heavy. Even with 9 ounces ------------- **MY SETUP!** WGP 04 ProStock Autococker Worrblade Delrin Bolt **SOON TO COME** Nexus Ram & QEV's CP Shorty Reg CP On/Off & Rail System And some other cool stuff!! |

this idea was already kicked around a great deal, you should search for it. *edit* I searched for CO2, and found it here is the link http://www.tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp?TID=99427&KW=CO2&PN=0&TPN=1 - http://www.tippmann.com/players/forum/wwf77a/forum_posts.asp ?TID=99427&KW=CO2&PN=0&TPN=1 |

You know, I’m all for searching the forum but why don’t you think about this before you decided to post a reply? What’s he going to search on? CO2? Lines? Remotes? Any one of the above probably isn’t going to gain any of the results that you seem to be familiar with. A more helpful reply would have included a link to a thread showing this information. |

Come on, Evil Fingers, give him a break. He was just suggesting something. For the scenario and woodsball games that can last for quite a bit of time, I can see the use of such a thing.
If you have ever played on a day when there so many players that the lines at the refill stations seem to take forever, having a second tank ready to go and easily changeable does not seem like a bad idea to me. You know, or at least I hope you know, what a pain it is switching bottles in the middle of a game.
As far as the weight goes, I can see this as being a problem, although the secondary tank doesn’t have to be a 20-ounce tank, it can be something like a 12-ounce to keep the weight and bulk down.
Anyway, it was a decent idea. |

That would be kind of slick, although it would have to be carried in such a way as to not be in the way, yet still be easily accessible. I know it’s been mentioned before, I like that site, especially the double-barrel on the main screen. |

The only way a person is gonna be able to carry more than one tank of co2 whether it would be a 9, 12 or two 9oz tanks, if he uses a vest or a harness, get a tank pouch from Ronin Gear and place it on either left or right thigh, put the tank in their and carry the extra tanks in the vest or on the harness.....but dont complain cus wit all that added weight its gonna be heavy from all that runnin around. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

Not a bad idea if you're participating in a scenario game... Although I'd much rather have one tank in my ASA, and then carry another in a pocket, or in a tank carrier/holder thingie... ------------- Most importantly - People suck. |

Actually a couple of my friends did that when we went woodsballin last June 04 on Fathers Day, 2 of my friends had 2 extra 9oz tanks each in their pockets and of course I didnt need em, I still had enough in my 20oz to finish the job. ------------- Do not steal....the government hates competition!

If you used a normal pack that holds pods vertically a 12 ounce tank could fit in each slot. This means you could hold alot of co2. Except you need to remember for all the co2 you bring you need to also bring on that much paint. This means that lets say you have two 12 ounce tanks your also going to need to carry about 12 140 round pods onto the field with you. And someonehow I doubt your going to do that. -------------

well if your playing a game were you have enough time to go through an entire tank then im sure you have a few seconds to unscrew the old and screw in the new tank. ------------- show initiative, determination. PROUD of ya! broken arrow |

Anyone know where I can get a 12 gram adaptor?? I have an idea to
put a spare 12 gram in an empty 1/8 in. NPT port with a Shocktech
1/8 in. on/off. Use intended as follows: When you're out of Co2 in your
tank and under fire, flip the on/off, and instant air for the few shots
to cover yourself. Then, flip the valve off, and put in a new
tank.

Why not just get the Co2 hose and put the multiple tanks on that? Then just put the tanks in a backpack or something? That makes a lot more sense.
