If I wanted to get my HPA tank filled I would have to drive 45 minutes, it's not that big a deal man...just get it filled at your field and bring your tank home.

when I get my tank this december I'm going to get a scuba too, so it should be no big deal.

I just get it filled when I go to the field. It's an hour away, I used to ahve one about 10 minutes away, but some moron broke his leg there and sued them so they had to close.

I can drive 5-10 minutes or bike 20 or 30 to get it filled at the new pro-shop. Before that one opened, it was like a 30 minute drive.

You shold look into filling your own tanks. It would be cheaper in the long run too.

i was thinking of puting a fill station in my room because the cylenders are like 19 bucks to get filled...but iam a low budget player and can't afford a 100dollar adapter for the stupid thing........man this sucks...plus i only have a 9oz tank of co2 so i drive one hour for 300 shots.

If you ever do get one, don't put it in your room, put it in the garage, or something. For safety's sake....
And no "$100 adaptor" is needed to fill your own tanks. Maybe $40 if you bought a fill station, but probably more around the $10-15 (or less) range if you made it yourself....

At my house i'll take an electric car pump, put it on my tank, and there were go. Let it run for 6-10 mintues and you have some air to shoot paint. (Not to much tho).
My field/proshop is around 10-15 mintues away. With HPA and Co2.

Buy some more c02 tanks of ranging sizes like another 9oz, 16oz, & 20oz. That way when you do drive out you will have at least a case of shoots (2000+)

Ok, Thats all cool but would a car pump even work? and i only have a co2 can would air hurt it?

filling co2 cannisters isnt simple push and fill...its more complicated than that, like they have to show u and such.
nitro is easy...so long as u have the matching pressure scuba, u just let the air flow until the pressure equalizes...:D
