Best air tanks are compressed air. They are also called: HPA, Nitro, Compressed Air, I dont remember anymore. They are pretty much the air you breath under high pressure (3000-5000psi). They come in some different size tanks. Usually, the best size is either a 68 or 70ci with 4500 psi.

What marker do you have? That will matter when choosing a high output or a low output tank.

I ran my a1 on hp and my droid and dm8 on lp all the time. Air generally is best, in my country(canada) were trying to get rid of the use of co2 alltogether.

 Thx for all the help guys,i see hpa keeps a constant 800 to 850 pressure no matter what the weather is like and doesn't freeze up like co2.  A plus it last alot longer too. Thx for the feedback.
