buying a new tank

C_losjoker · 07-20-2008, 03:26 AM

hey wanted some input from you guys. i am looking to buy a new air tank. I would like to get one tank that i can use on all my guns, i think there is the nitro tank that you can change the out put pressure. are these any good, or would you get something else? I just wanted some advice and see what you guys thought.

There are many types of adjustable regulators out there. Some you need to change the spring packs to make them "low" or "high" pressure.
Others just need to turn the adjustment screw on the reg.
My favs are AGD flatlines or (sorry in advance for saying this) Smart Parts Max Flo

What guns do you have? I'd say the most universal would be a preset tank with an output around 850psi. Replacing spring packs require you to empty the tank first, adjustables like the flatline means removing and attaching the cradle to the gun you are using. Newer styles have dovetail mounts, but you still need tools. Kind of inconvienient. It's a lot easier to be able to screw the tank in like CO2.
