I have a couple of questions regarding HPA tanks. First off, can the tanks be used for HPA and N2? Or do you need separate tanks depending on which you choose? Secondly, if a marker can run off of HPA, can it run off of N2 as well? -------------

Yeah its all the same thing. If you buy a nitro tank, make sure you get a High Pressure output tank. Do you have a tank in mind that you are looking for or do you want a suggestion? -------------  |

Some suggestions would be sweet. I've never had the need for a HPA tank until recently; I got an 05 Autococker Orracle Mini w/E2 off of a kid I know. It has fired less than 10,000 paintballs so his dad is making him sell it. Which is good for me. -------------

This is true, what was I thinking. How much do you want to spend on a tank? ------------- |

Not overly concerned about the cash. Naturally I am looking for a good deal without sacrificing quality.

I suggest the Crossfire 68/4500. Great tank for the money and will last around 1000 shots. http://www.actionvillage.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/en/-/USD/DisplayProductInformation-Start;sid=vbfELCXutvzEiGDP9J0EhC8nGPdx8Pyk9f8=?ProductID=zZSsFAY7_%2ewAAAD3x2elA_2t - http://www.actionvillage.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/S tore/en/-/USD/DisplayProductInformation-Start;sid=vbfELCXutv zEiGDP9J0EhC8nGPdx8Pyk9f8=?ProductID=zZSsFAY7_%2ewAAAD3x2elA _2t Another thing to make sure before you buy it would be, make sure your local field of proshop can fill the tank to 4500psi. I have 2 proshops and only one can go to 4500psi, the other has to stop at 3000 because they are cheap. ------------- |
