CO2 tanks that fit under the barrel

Darth Sparky · 06-11-2009, 08:27 PM

Do any currently available CO2 tanks fit under the barrel?

It would be sweet if HPA tanks would. Actually I've found a 13oz bottle that may. Probably not though.

Anything 2 inch or less will fit. The old 7oz & 10oz tanks will

In House Branded 13/3000psi HPA on that site should too

So common 12oz bottles won't fit? Unfortunately both of my old 9oz bottles are missing the TC stamp so they are prohibited by newish Canadian law.

I've heard this argument before and it's a valid one; If you're going to use CO2 - get your own fill station. You can fill your own tanks, ensuring that you get a proper fill, and you don't need to worry about getting an old tank refused at the field.

It's probably a $70 investment.

Titus is correct 7oz. 9oz. will fit under the barrel.

The dive shop that fills my tanks here in town won't fill aluminum tanks past hydro however they will fill my steel and chro-molly tanks in the above sizes due to the 2" and under rule.

They are still available sometimes on evil-bay and here used. Sometimes the pin valves go bad due to age but are easily replaced with new valves and secured with the blue loctite. (I also visually inspect the inside and won't keep a tank with rust inside.)
