Their claims?
Yes.. they claim to hydrostatically test paintball air tanks. And yes...they do that. Other than that...you lost me. ------------- RLTW |

I used them about 3 years ago.
I didn't have them re-build a reg for me, and I removed my own reg. It took about a week from the time I shipped it until I got it back. I live in Ohio...so it probably was 24 hour turnaround and standard shipping 3 days each way...so yeah...I think they speak the truth in their advertising. I found a place cheaper that is local to me ($25)....and it is only cheaper because of the shipping. p.s. I've never heard of a 3500psi paintball tank before. ------------- RLTW |

dsen, I believe your tank either needed to be re hyrdoed last november, or you have until November '09. Call up Pure Energy and ask ------------- Que pasa?

I typed in Pure Energy and it was the first site that came up. Pure Energy tanks are made by PMI. ------------- "When I grow up I want to marry a rich man and live in a condor next to the beach" -- My 7yr old daughter. |
