I’m getting ready to buy a new HP air tank and I was wondering, what is the lightest screw on tank out there right now? So you guys out there who have used a lot of tanks help me out. I currently have a Crossfire 68/3000 and I want something lighter.

Obviously a 45/45 fiber wrapped tank will be the lightest. From there the screw in regs are only different in weight by a VERY small amount. Adustable regs can have a good amount of weight differences between them.

cernterflag was showing off a bottle at ultimate madness that was 1 pound lighter the a normal 68/4500 bottle. Might want to contact them to see about getting 1 of those. I was personaly amazed at the wieght difference.

Fill it with helium.


I've often thought of doing that. Then if you really wanted to you could fill balloons by dry firing into them. Would probably make you a hit at a birthday party. :dance: how come the banana doesn't dance anymore???? :(

I can say that the New Center flag 4ce "semi-ajustable" screw in has got to be the lightest tank out there. Plus there a vid on Vetter's site that shows it in action keep up with his "rapid fire". :)

"I was given the opportunity to test out Centerflag Paintball's new 4CE reg system. The reg offers 4 different spring settings for the output pressure best for your marker. Running at 1000psi this preset is the first (to my knowledge) you can rapidfire"-Vetter

But, when I search Centerflags website for them they are gone? What happened. I swear they were on there like 2 weeks ago. WTF?!?!?!??! :tard:

Thanks for all the info guys, it sounds like the Centerflag 4ce is the way to go. However I could not find it on their web site anyone know where I can get one? :shooting:

I just called Centerflag in IL. And they said there was some road blocks with the 4ce regulator system and It will not be released. But they said they will be selling a new version of the 420 reg that is easy to dismantle( while tank is pressurized? ) and will be offering a trade in. This new reg will not incorporate the semi-adjustable PSI like the 4CE. They also told me that something new and very exciting is on the way that will blow us away but wouldnt give any hints. :wow:

I called Centerflag last asking about the 4ce because I saw them on their site a few weeks ago then they were gone. They told me that they took them off the site because they had a bottle shortage. They didn't say anything about not releasing them. They still showed the trade in program for the 4ce. I hope they get some bottles in soon because I want one of these bad. This is going to suck if they don't put these back up for sale!

So it could be a bottle shortage? Or "a roadblock" and that cool new thing , I thinking is a new Hyperframe. Nearly half the posts on Centerflag forums are asking for them.
