I really dont recommend their guns. They do have nice tanks though(very similar to crossfire, but you can get cool designs and they are cheaper), and I heard their barrels are pretty nice. If your interested in a tank, they also sell them through ebay so you can get them really cheap.

3A HPA tanks are the cheapest in price on the market followed by Crossfire, but the thing is...info on the 3A tanks and the other products are scarce, I emailed their customer service to get some info on their tanks, but I never got a response and this was back in the summer of this year.

For tanks, Crossfire is definently a safer choice than 3A, unless you
are really short of cash. 3A just doesn't produce the reliability that
other companies do, which allows them to sell there products fairly
cheaper. So I'd say if you want an HPA tank, get a crossfire.
Or, if you are looking at a barrel I would suggest 12-14 in J&J Ceramic, or a(12-14") Lapco Bigshot. The J&J will run you about $35, and is a little more quiet than the Bigshot. However, the Bigshot definently out-performs the J&J in the accuracy department.The Bigshot will cost you probably somewhere around $55. |

3a regs are made by centerflag, and centerflag makes great tanks. They are good, the graphics are cool on the tanks too but most people are going to have a tank cover so it doesn't really matter.
I don't really know anymore, my brother in law got a 3a KO barrel for christmas ill try to let you know how that works when he uses it if you want. Edited by Large Unit |

I don't own anything of their equipment or products. Their equipment is not top of the line but it is ok.

Don't listen to anyone of them who said the 3A barrels are good. I have one and it is not good at all. I have it for my A5 and regret paying for it. I'm not sure about the tanks or anything else but trust me on the barrel. I would have taken the stock barrel over it. Only if you want to see a paintball corkscrew then by all means buy a 3A barrel. |

Besides the barrel, is there anymore info on their tanks, besides havin a Centerflag Reg on it? I could careless bout their other products, they dont appeal to me, but the price on their tanks are really hard to beat. |

Being that Centerflag makes their regs... that's all you really have to worry about. 3A is certainly not making the actual tank, as the fiber-wrapped HPA tanks are typically made by Carleton or Luxfer, etc.
If the Reg is a Centerflag... then you'd basically be buying a Centerflag tank, marketed by 3A, not manufactured by 3A. |
