That loader isn't a keeper, but the only thing that could make the marker better is a single finger trigger in most people's minds. The tank might need a hydro as well, but I still would be picking it up if I were you.

Honestly, they're probably the least desirable Tribal out there. That one looks to be in decent shape though. The reg is kind of a brick but those were solid and it might be worth $20 or so. As crappy as they were, not having the stock reg detracts from the value a bit as it was a factory matching part. Not an awful price but $50 or so would be a nicer.

Those green tanks need to be drilled and thrown away. There was some sort of safety issue with them.

Accually the green tanks had no safety issues (I had one) that I am fimiliar with.

The problem was (which what I had) if a field had high moisture HPA (bad filters or bad filters on the old co2 pusher systems) these tanks had a tendency to have rust issues on the inside.

This lead to them being rejected when attempting to recertify. Alot of places that re-hydroed tanks did not want to take the time to see if the rust was really an issue.

if it's working, it's worth it. Never buy a fixeruper tribal unless you know whats wrong and where to get parts.

I like the twister and addicted myself, although a unmilled mephy is nice.
Stock regs are crap unless its a matching anno for a tri-fade it wont hurt value.
