How much would a scuba tank run to fill nitrogen tanks with? And how much does it cost to get it filled? I used one with relative ease about a week ago and I thought that if I get nitrogen I'm getting a tank and fill station for it so I can pay to get the big tank filled and then shoot all weekend on that instead of $4.00 per fill every time I'm empty on a 48\3k or 68\3k or a 68\45.
And how much do you think it would cost to build a dead box, and what would I need? Where can I get paintball-approved netting for really cheap??

Well since nitrogen being the same thing as compressed air , they have 80 cu. ft. 3300 psi scuba tanks on www.scuba.com. To fill the scuba tank will cost you $5 to $10 and will last you about 2 to 4 weeks depending on how you play . For the fill station that will run you $40 to $50.

SFU: Why not spend your money on something worthwhile... like a GUN. You pay all this money for crap. You don't need a fill station, you need a decent gun. You don't need C4 clothes, you need skill. You're the biggest newbie on the site. I hope your tank exploads as you fill it so you stop posting all this stupid trash.

So I have a jersey, some pants, and a Spyder. What's it to you if I'm spending my money on my stuff? You're probably just I_AM_YOUR_GOD, logged in under your name, posting mean crap. You've never acted like this before...:eyes:

Yeah, well, I don't think he needs to be mean to anyone like that. My Mom told me I'm not allowed to spend any more money until I play some, and I'm saving up to go this weekend. I'm actually a better player than I thought I was and was told this by two guys that played in the World Cup this year (rookie, but still). I doubt you've ever been told by a pro that you're a kick- mofo player huh?

I doubt I evaluate my own skill based on the perceptions of others. And you can't even afford to play, but you buy all this, again, USELESS CRAP. C4 pants don't make you play better. A decent gun and barrel do. You can't save enough money to play with the crap you've bought, but you can afford to spend a hundred or more on your toolbox (to fix any problems you might have, in the event that you actually play) and a freakin' fill station for air for a gun that you don't even use.
Stop being a little fad boy and play once in a while. Mean or not, this is for your own good. Tons of people already think you're a massive tool, though I'm not one of them. "Tool" status is below you, in my book. Personally, that wouldn't bother me at all, but you're the walking billboard for stupid fads, so I'd imagine its important to you.

Well Cuervo, no offense, but you obviously cannot read and my signature specifically says "Hybrid pants", and therefore they were $65.00. Yeah that's a lot, but they're comfortable. I CAN play, and I DO use my gun. I actually went to play last sunday with about 9 other people. I didnt get anyone but the point is, I played. The stuff I'm saying I want to have in my tool kit is not going to cost that much, and i'm not buying it all right now! Little here, little there. I don't have the money for a $500 gun. You pick, I play or I buy an Autococker\BKO\something like that.

Or maybe try this: don't get all the crap that doesn't help you play so you have money for a good gun, so you can be justified in buying the expensive non-performance gear.
Stop being a tool, it's all I ask.

I'll make you a deal:
I'll try to cut down on the threads I make\post in about gear, except when it's something I can help someone with, or have my own specific question about. No more ''buy this buy that'' threads. Just if I can help someone.
In the end, it's my money and I can do with it what I choose. But you're right, I do need to play more and would like to. There's a 3-man tournament on the 28th I am planning on attending, even though I know I won't place. My local field is getting Sup' Air ball bunkers tomorrow and I'll probably go out there with a few balls and some air and play one on one with someone after we get it setup, if they'll let me help them. Oh well, time to go to work now. Later guys!
