if sporting good stores sold hpa, it would be alot more convenient for people that don't live close to fields to get hpa, and for people who don't play at fields to be able to use hpa. i think it wouldn't be that dumb for them to do, because they could start selling hpa tanks, and other hpa accessories too. what do you think?

A Sporting Goods Store would charge each HPA tank alot more than what you usually see in a pbshop or in an online store and they would also be charging alot more than the usual price fer filling a tank.

And the reason a Sporting Goods Store would charge so much is beacuse of the overhead of keepin them in stock and training the people in selling them as well as filling them.

Infact, I saw a Pure Energy 47/3000 HPA tank at Sportsmart aka Sports Authority goin fer $100....gettin one online or at a pbshop would cost alot less than that.

they fill co2 for reasonable prices, and sell co2 tanks for reasonable prices, it wouldnt be that different for hpa... right?

Ya it would, techinically they would require more training than for filling C02, and I also grantee they didn't train C02 fillers, which is against the law.

Also, HPA in genetral has a lot more laws than C02.... for regulation atleast.

really good, if you can find a lower price on something, they will match it! Like they had Empire Reloaders for $70 and I found them for $43 so they sold me one for $40 plus free batteries and 200 paintballs!
