I'm not sure on the first one, I've read it somewhere on AO though...

I'd go w/ fiber wrapped or aluminum. Both lighter, w/ fiber wrapped being the lightest, although you've gotta take better care of em.

mags input pressure should be between 700-800

you don't need that high pressure for classic valves or emags, for those I believe recommended pressure is around 600 but of course you can go higher without hurting it.

I thought that HPA tanks made of aluminum had to be wrapped with Fiberglass or Kevlar. The bare metal tanks are steel. I have not seen a bare aluminum 3000 psi or 4500 psi tank. But then again, I don't get out much.

My son has a 47/3000 PMI steel tank and it weighs more than my 68/3000 'glass wrapped Crossfire tank.

On the size issue, I would recommend anything bigger than the 68 size. The 88 cu. in. size is not all that much bigger than a 68 but holds almost 1/3 more air. Just get the biggest size tank you feel comfortable with carrying around.

No I have an all aluminum hpa tank. Crossfire 47ci 3k. I get 700-800 shots out of this tank, which is good enough for me, a speedball player, front. I dont tend to shoot as much as back players.

Yes, they do make plain aluminum HPA tanks! I was right - I don't get out that much!

You get 700 to 800 shots out of a 47 cu.in. tank!!! That is incredible - I get no where near that many using a classic mag. I would be lucky to get 450 to 500 max. out of a full tank.
