I have an A5 with the sniper barrel and I was wondering if the PMI tank with the on/off is a good quality tank. I've used Brass Eagle before and they have been nothing but bad quality.

Also I was wondering which type of paint is good for 30-45 dollars for a box of 2000 rounds? Draxxus Midnight, PMI Premium, PMI Rampage, Proto, Daiblo Heat, Diablo Nightmare? There are so many types and I haven't tried many.

Pretty much all co2 tanks will perform the same.

And Draxxus Blaze, PMI Premium, Proto, and XBALL bronze are all some good paint in your price range, give em a try.

PMI are really good c02 tanks , when i used c02 i had problems with brass eagle tanks also.  Out of the paint he listed above i used x-ball bronze and it wokred great with my proto.  Your best bet is to buy alittle of each paint , shoot it throught your gun and see which works best with your barrel.

Thanks alot guys, I thought it couldn't be just me who had problems with Brass Eagle tanks. I always took pritty good care of my tank but one day it just stopped working. I will go for the PMI tank but I'll keep my eyes open on all the different brands of paint.
