    Does my Automag want a high pressure or low pressure tank? Tank suggestions?

    I just bought an Automag (classic valve, level 10, single trigger, ULE body, very nice) and I need to buy my first HPA system to fuel it.

    Now, there are a lot of tanks out there. I was wondering if any of you had tips for me to narrow down my search a bit. What kinda pressure output do I want from my tank? Is there a particular brand that stands out among the rest? What is going to compliment this marker the best, and still be user friendly?

    Thanks so much for your time and help.

    I use a Pmi Pure Enegy. It is priced right and works very well. It puts out about 825 or 850 psi. Thats about what you want.

      I would suggest ,if you can afford it, to get an adjustable output. for this reason...
      If you are anything like me you WILL upgrade. Once you get an Xvalve or a gun with one, you will be able to adjust your reactivity. I have an OLD Nitro Duck 114cu.in (Huge,like a two liter bottle huge, I don,t suggest that large.) works like a champ. 68cu. in seems to be a popular size.

        So, would this be a good tank?

        Crossfire High Pressure 68/4500 psi N2 Tank

        Man, I am not even sure what the diff between high and low pressure is? I am assuming that high pressure just means more air can be stored in the tank... thus creating higher pressure?

          LP/HP just refers to the output pressure of the tank regulator. It has nothing to due with capacity. The tank you listed will do just fine. Never put a LP tank on a Mag.
