Can someone send an email to that guy telling him to put that the tank is a 3000 psi tank not 5000, its tested at 5000 to ensure it'll be able to withstand 3000 easily, but the problem is, some kid is gonna buy this gun, see 5000 on the side and think he can get a 4500.... 3000psi reg + 4500psi in tank = bad.

That's an oxygen tank. Hopefully any competent paintball field will realize what the tank is and fill it accordingly.

ummm...

He says right in the auction its a 22oz tank, and it looks like a pin valve fiber wrapped tank. I don't really see the problem. Unless the guy doing fills is a complete retard, you'd know thats a CO2 tank and not for HPA use...

No its a nitro/co2 combo tank. You can fill it with either, its rated to 5000psi but meant to be filled at 3000.

Some kid is going to get that, screw it on his gun, open the valve, start filling and.... no :eek:

Most retards buy from ebay and do not research anything before hand. I was searching around and saw 5000psi on the tank, I instinctifly thought it was a 5000 tank when I remembered that 3000psi tanks are tested to 5000, 4500 to 7500.

Just someone send him an email telling them its a 3000 tank and to put it on the thing.

your full of it, Look at the valve its just a standard pin valve no regulator or anything
Its a CO2 tank made by smart parts for the shocker that was a complete gas hog, but the tank wasn't much lighter than a full 20oz. you can't fill it with Nitro because there is no reg on it

do some research before you say stuff.

Yeah, Skife is right.
There is defentally no fill nipple on the tank and I think thats too small to be a regulator. I'm pretty sure thats one of the SP on/off pin valves. Its a CO2 tank.. You would have to have some crazy adapter if you wanted to fill that thing with nitro..
Then again the picture isnt all that clear. But I would put my money on the fact that its a Co2 tank.

Up for sale a 1999 Black Shocker Sport/Turbo. Microhoned sniper barrel lets you reach out and mark someone. Rate of fire selector switch allows 1 shot/ 3 shot/ or full auto fire. Rate of fire is around 12-14 balls a second. I've never officially timed it, never had to. Just had the solonoid replaced and it just flies. Included a DYE motorized hopper, a 22oz air tank w/ cover, a blk nylon pod belt that holds 4 pmi pods, 4 pods, and a duel end squeegee.

I am selling due to knee injuries that won't let me play anymore. Get ready for the new season with this package that has everything you need. Just add eye protection and paint to go play.

If you have any questions, please email me. Happy Bidding.
Looks fine to me.
