      As paintbattler said, it really doesn't matter that much which system you get. It's a question of preference and how much you are willing to spend.

      sizewise:

      you'll get like 800 shots from 68cui at 3000psi
      and around 1200 from 68cui at 4500psi

      everything bigger than 68 cui is too bulky IMO (but that's just me)
      black Xtreme Emag
      LVL 10 inside, warp feed left setup
      green warp feed and green 12V Revvy with X-board (melted for warp hose)
      14" Freak kit
      Triggernomics blade trigger
      AGD flatline 4.5k 68cui with green tank cover
      green LED Display (thanks Have Blue)
      clear grips with custom sledgehammer logo (made by Load SM5)

      to do list:

      - Get Triggernomics custom milling
      - Get Custom Anno

        If you have the extra bucks, you might want to consider an Air America system. I love my Apoc. It has served me many many fills without problems, and it is adjustable (which will be useful if you get a retro valve). The reg is a monster, and it is very easy to maintain. Check ebay... you can get some nice tanks there for quite a bit cheaper than buying one new (even if you are going to buy a cheaper preset like PMI or Crossfire)

          If you only have a stock valve (non r/t0 go with the PMI or CrossFire systems, preset, a 68/88 3000psi, but if you have a R/T valve, it will still work but an adjustable system, such as the AGD Flatline would be a better choice...

            Why would the flatline be a better choice?

              because it will let you dial in the resposive-ness or kick in an R/T &Retro valve.......

                  The flatline, however, is cheaper than most adjustable systems. You can find it for around $200 if you look around :)

                  But any tank will work. Just stay away from the Conquest systems. They are more LP oriented, and I believe Russ was the one who said they don't work well over 650 PSI. They are good tanks, just not for mags.

                    I agree completely. Disreagarding price, however, I haven't really seen much difference in performace between the Flatline and other tanks, like the Air America systems or the Nitro Ducks...ect.

                        ?

                        Why, exactly, won't your mom let you buy adjustable tanks? Just wondering.
