| the disposable ones are usualy $10. at most every walmart, they get around 100 shots. im not sure if you mean the disposable ones, or refillable ones. the refillable ones, you can find on ebay. |

| i agree 100%, i hate carrying the 20 ounce when its such a waste, buy a bunch of 9 ounces or get those little disposable ones. |

Dont bother with the 4 ounce ones. They arent re-useable and you will save alot of money buy getting a 9 oz refilable tank. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

| Don't know if they're still available, but check Ebay. A few months back iisports was cleaning out their warehouse and had lots of BE 4oz tanks listed. That's were I got mine. They're standard 4oz CA tanks. Work great on my M4E/68 Carbine. |

| stop being a baby, cant even pick up a gun with a 20oz tank, i have a 20oz abd a 12oz and i would say that 20oz is the best co2 out there. |

| i like my 20 oz tank a lot. i dont mind carrying the extra weight. its not that much if you really think about it. just get a drop forward. also they're better so you dont have to keep filling up your tanks. also the desposible ones would waste a lot of money to use the 4 oz and then throw them away. just my 2 cents. |

Except it is big and bulky. Some people don't like to be burdened down with more than they need to carry. -------------

Use whichever tank is comfortable for you and provides enough air for your needs.
I've got several 20, 12, 9, and 4 oz tanks. For games that I'm using my Pro-Carb I generally use a 12oz tank. When I'm using my M4E I use 4oz tanks. That's by design. The 4oz'rs are in a vertical adapter giving me a better balanced gun. It's a matter of personal taste. When I go out on the field I'm only carrying two 100rd pods and a spare bottle. That includes big games like TWC. I've only once left the field dry on paint but not on air. And almost always make several from the other team leave first. Taking the field with very restricted paint and/or air forces you to be more aware of shots. Reduces spray-n-pray tactics. The point is, don't slam someone for make a choice that is different from yours. Be civil if you think they are make the wrong choice. |

Mike don't let someone get your goat like that. I know that it's difficult at times. One thing I didn't answer for you earlier, yes store will fill CA 3.5 and 4oz tanks. As long as they are within 5 years of the last testing date just like any other CA tank. (CA = constant air) |

you try going over 6 hours on a 9 oz and then re-post. now that may only mean something to us senario guys but o well. bisides if you actualy do the math 2 20 oz waigh less than there ecuivilent in 4 oz or any other smaller size. heck i think they should make them bigger. ------------- Tipp A-5 Opsgear Saw Shroud Opsgear G36 Folding Stock 16" j&j |
