ok guys lately ever since i got my flatline tank my gun has given me problems. I'm looking into selling my flatline and buying a 88/45 Air America Raptor REX i was just wondering if i could get some feedback about this tank. :headbang:

What's wrong with your Flatline? Most problems with them can be fixed by cleaning and lubing the o-rings in the reg.

it leaks(i put loc tight on everything), its heavy(its a steel so go fig), and its really too small for me. i plan on shooting more now that i got e-mag lowers and i want a bigger tank and Air America was the first comp that came to mind.

Why would you lock tight anything that you might need to take apart?

AA's are also great tanks..but they are also pretty heavy...i think flatlines are lighter tahn AA's. Also...AA got owned big time by AGD at IAO...so AGD is obviously better:) you might have had a problem with your reg seat(why it leaked) and thats easily fixed by ordering a 10 dollar part.

Maybe just a keep the flatline reg and buy just a tank. That way you keep the adjustability and you get any size tank you want. You could probably get a 88/3K stubby for under $100. Certainly cheaper than a new tank with reg.
i would sell it and buy a nice dynaflow. Buying a new cyclinder is kinda a PITA.

Agreed, 3k is too small for 50% more shots 4.5 is better. Just trying to save you some money.
GTRSI's got it right , buy a Dynaflow it'll definitely last you through all your future markers.
