| Do i need to add anything to the a-5 in order to use a compressed air tank? im about to buy a used PureEnergy 68/3000 psi tank, re-hydroed. - for 150 bucks canadian...thats almost half the price of a new one here. is this a good deal, and is there anything i should know before i buy it? ive been using co2 for a few years..but air is free here and co2 is almost 5 bucks a fill now..cheaper for me to go with air. |

| I've never seen an LP 68/3000. so you should be good to go. Make sure you get a cover for it. |

You can get brand new 72cu/3000psi tanks on ebay for $80 brand new if you look for them.

You are good to go, but you should consider a 4500 psi tank, unless you play right next to the fill station. 68/3000 will only get you 600ish shots. |
