Review:
This is a really good tank really good. I've never felt anything as light as this. I put this on my cyborg and you really don't feel a difference and the cyborg is 2.0 lbs.
It is a great tank the recharge rate is so nice even at fast speeds it doesn't effect.
This tank should be a 10/10 there is nobody that has rated it below that so far except a guy that rated it at what a 1. It makes me so mad that people go in on here and just like write bad reviews because they don't like it or etc. And he only TESTED IT if you only tested it don't write a review unless you have a fair ammount of time with it. And even so there's no reason why any product should desirve a 1 unless it like completly breaks or something like that very few cases of that.
I have a 68CI i think if you can't test stuff out then if you like it close to your body a more tight feel get the 45CI tank if you like a little bit of length and a more loose feel get a 68.
The tank is smaller than other 68's or 45's but still like has the same pressure and size inside whatever. The MacDev bottle cover is a great buy because it fits it perfect and has that nice fabric on it. And only 15 dollars not bad for a good tank cover.
There's no doubt in my mind that this is the best tank right now. Especially if it's compared to all the pre-set tanks for sure.
Conclusion:
Overall this is a great tank you will not find a better one around. Yes it is kinda expensive but very welth it to buy it. You will be satisfied. Thanks a lot peace
Great Look
Milled reg
Small Guage
Really Light
Fast recharge
Weaknesses:

Review:
I just got this in the mail strait from paintball kingdom. I ordered the 45/45 one and it is very samll and light, it looks good, too. The reg has great milling and is light blue in color. The tank is extremely small and tight to your body. The recharge rate on this thing is incredible, and can recharge around 35+ bps on my borg. One gripe though is the fact that my 05 dye rhino cover doesn't fit it tightly. But whatever, it still fits, but can be spun around the tank. This is a major improvement from my nitroduck 90/45 by switching I saved a ton of weight, diameter, and height. So far I love my tank. To get what you paid for go for macdev, they are the most high quality manufacturer in the world.
Conclusion:
The price is steep, but well worth it. Get this tank.

Review:
I traded my crossfire for this tank. The fact that it is used doesn't determine the rating I give it. When I recieved it the gauge was 500 psi off not Macdev's fault the previous owners fault. When I put the tank on my timmy I was amazed how much lighter it was than my crossfire but I had a carlton bottle on the crossy and the macdev has a luxfur. I went to the crono to check out the performance. Flawless +/- 3 and no drop off even though it was LP. I was amazed. I also noticed that the bottle was shorter but wider than my crossy's bottle. Overall, if I was buying a new tank again I would save up the extra 40 dollars and buy the Macdev becasue it is just that good.
Conclusion:
Buy this tank easily a 10/10 best tank I have ever used.

Review:
Just to test this thing out and my new X-Mod software I set my X-Mag to 20bps Full Auto, no shootdown whatsoever, this is a good regulator however its also a great regulator on other tanks sold under different brand names.The reason these things are so "hard" to find? Welcome to the wonderful world of private labels and contract manufacturing. Of course some shops will see a demand and try to carry them. Somebody else is paid to make these things for them using the same technology as everybody elses, there is no special engineering going on here, just extra milling and another burst disk.
Conclusion:
I don't reccomend this even though its great but how come the company who makes these gets a lower score on the same regulator? This is more of a buyer beware and for those people that look for the lowest scores first.

Review:
Key Strenghts
The regulator is the most you'll notice out of the legionair. It has great recharge rates meaning that if you have a good regulator set-up, you'll never have dropoff issues again. Tests have shown the macdev legionair to recharge 200 cc of air in 8 milliseconds. While, one shot from a marker is usually 80 cc. The closest competetor is crossfire at 12 ms for only 80 cc.
The size is nice, smaller than the 68 ci crossy and other 68 ci tanks
The weight reduction is nice. It compares to a dye stubby, but stil heavier. Luxfer made both tanks but the dye is lighter. (dye has a recharge of 173 ms..ew)
Weaknesses
When i got the tank I freaked out because there were some bubbles in the tank finish, but i was told by macdev techs that thats okay. They would have done a 100 tank recall if that happened.
So far
Conclusion:
The best of the best, legionair is. But the tank was slightly dissapointing. But still excellent.

Review:
I bought this Tank after selling my old crossfire tank. First thing I noticed when I took it out of the box was the way it looked. The milled reg looks really nice, as does the actual bottle itself. I put the thing on my gun and instantly noticed that it was shorter than my crossfire was. It was shorter by about half an inch and was lighter by 1/2 pound. The tank is also about 1/4 thicker than my crossfire was so my Dye tank cover fit real snug. A snug tank cover means it'll never slide around when your trying to take the tank off. I can't guve you an exact time of recharge but when I had my Timmy boucing around 20cps, I heard no signes of drop off at all, not even a little bit. That shows that it just kept feeding the HPR a high amount of presure. The only weaknesses I found weren't in the product itself, but the marketing of it. With a price tag of between $200 and $230 depending on where you buy it,it's not the cheapest tank out there. Also, I could only find this product on a few websites, one of which was really close to my house so I was lucky.
Conclusion:
If you have the $$$ buy it if you really feel the need to buy one of the better tanks out there. If you can't find a place to buy it, try www.sakworldpaintball.com . Get it get it get it.

Review:
Last month i was at my cuz's house shooting his b2k4 w/pds and was using his dye throttle and liked the look of the tank but was experiencing a little dropoff but wasn't too bad. Well two weeks ago i had enough money to buy a nitro tank and was looking for a crossfire 68/4500 when i came across the macdev legion air and fell in love with it. I did my homework on it and learned it had the fastest recharge rate out there and was smaller than most tanks, so i ordered it. Got my tank last week, aired it up and screwed it in my promaster and in no time i was shooting strings of paint with no drop off. i chronoed it and i had +/- 2 fps, ultra consistant . i have been reading the earlier reviews and people are saying they can't find this tank. if you are looking for it go to sakworldpaintball.com they have 68/4500 high and low pressure in stock for $230
Conclusion:
For the extra $40 this is the best tank out there(in the preset category). If you can't afford it i would recommend crossfire or nitro duck.
BUY THIS TANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
