When you decide to use HPA with a 98C is there anything else you need to buy?  Stupid question..maybe.

Nope.

Just a screw-in tank with a "high pressure" (anywhere between 750-850psi) output (these are typically the standard ones, with low-pressure tanks usually marked accordingly)

Screw it in and play, as you would any CO2 tank.

Shorty is right, but I would also suggest that you make sure your local field fills air - not all do.

Also, since air tanks are fairly expensive, I would recommend investing in a tank cover, nipple cover, and thread protector.  That extra $20 will keep your $200 tank going longer.

+1 !!! Nipple cover and thread protector should be MANDATORY.

Tank cover if you get a fiber wrapped tank.

yup, just screw the tank on and go.

A tank cover is mandatory if you have a fiber tank, but optional for a steel tank.

i would assume a nipple and thread protector are a necessity as well, i'm getting all three for my tank, since i would rather have the softer surface of a tank cover that wont slide off my shoulder as easily...

New to HPA. Is this nipple cover suffecient?

Will it protect the thread? Doesn't look like it will.

The fill nipple is not threaded. If you want to protect the threads that go into the ASA, you'll need a thread protector.

Two different products.
