The best one will be the one that best suits your playing needs. There are a lot of good tanks out there. The tanks themselves are only made by a few different companies (Luxfer, Charelton, etc.)--it's the regulators that are made by the company who markets the tank.

If you're playing with a 'Mag the output pressure of the regulator needs to be high enough to run the marker ... something around 800 psi.

if you'r elooking for a preset, plan to spend arund $200, if you're buying adjustbale, dont spend below $300 or you'll regret it, i know i did... if you're just going with the aluminum canister hpa for $70, just know that you get what you pay for, but it'll work...

I like Nitro Duck X-Stream, 5-year hydro date, zero maintenance.

My 3A (Crossfire reg, Catalina tank) 47/3k aluminum tank was well worth the 40$ I paid for it. It isnt any lightweight thing but making the change from co2 to N2 was well worth the extra weight. Crossfire, Nitroduck, ACI, there are plenty of good brands out there.

Look in the buy/sell/trade forums for air systems... A used Crossfire or Centerflag preset screw-in will probably suit you best, at a reasonable price...

Preset I'd go with Crossfire. Adjustable I'd go with the Dynaflow. I own both and am very happy with both.
