I highly recommend getting yourself a scuba tank at your local dive shop. It's got a high one time cost, but over time you will save more. I've heard of guys paying up to $10 to get a 3k fill at their pro shop, that's only 15 fills to eqaul the cost of your scuba tank. The real kicker is it only costs $2 to $5 to refill your scuba tank and you can get 20 2k+ fills from it. If you play a couple times a month or more, it's definitely worth the investment in the hardware.

Before you do, call your feild, to see if personal HP fill stations are allowed. I know at all of mine they are not.

i just go down to the scuba shop, about the same distance to the paintball store and they charge $3.20 to get it filled... they usually fill my tank to around 4100psi but they managed to get it to 5000psi (dropped down to 4500) but i heard the fill startion start to leak so i backed out of the room quietly
