    45/45 tanks??

    ok im searching around for a new tank and i just found out my field is going to get a 4500psi compressor. so how big are 45/45 tanks? im a front player and size really matters...also, what are some good brands? im looking at crossfire/pmi/aci. are these any good? ive found the aci for the cheapest then the crossfire then the pmi. im really wanting to know which one is the smallest and lightest. thanks guys....:)

      45 ci tankes are sometimes called snapple bottles (because the size is very close). the new crossfire regs have a nice recharge rate, better than the pmi pure energy. i havent seen an aci tank tested. i would say weight between these tanks are comparable.
      As society and the problems that face it become more and more complex and machines become more and more intelligent, people will let machines make more of their decisions for them, simply because machine-made decisions will bring better results than man-made ones. Eventually a stage may be reached at which the decisions necessary to keep the system running will be so complex that human beings will be incapable of making them intelligently. At that stage the machines will be in effective control. People won't be able to just turn the machines off, because they will be so dependent on them that turning them off would amount to suicide

      sometimes I just freaking hate people. which means the next day I will love them for the sake of balance, but right now I will just concentrate on the hating. Hate hate hate. Blaaaarg! ;)

        i have a raptor 68/45 and then ive got my 68/4500 and a 88/3000.. the raptor isnt that great i just like it with my dz2 (puts it foward 6inches).. but the crossfire is deff alot better with the recharge.. it keeps up with the rt with ease.. and with my raptor u could hear the flow was alot slower.. (after a long string) but the only down i had about it is that the new crossfire reg is make of i think 4130, and it eats any non-steal cradles.. i had a benchmark and then i were to screw the tank in, the air would let out really fast, but the tank valve was open all the way so the recharge wasnt there at all (after i shot my gun about 8times ide have 2 take the tank off and put it back on.. and i would have screwed the tank in more but the threds of the crale would have been gone.. so i got the dz2 tank adapter with on-off and i love it (pmi in my mind stink.. well the regs do but the tank has a 5year hydro..) aci ive never even seen one lol

          45/45 tanks are nice, small. They only get like 800 shots or so though. I would consider getting a system x 45/45.

              well im a front player, there is no way i will shoot more than 800 a game. so i think the amt. of shots it gives will be ok. and where can i look at system x tanks? im leaning towards the crossfire, because ive heard great things about them, i have a crossfire tank right now, and theyre cheaper....

                  I just got a CenterFlag 45 4500 and it is really sweet. A good bit smaller than my 68 4500 CenterFlag. I would say if you could afford it you ought to go for the CenterFlag or Max Flow.

                      With the correct bore match I get max 775-800 shots(crossfire 47ci/3k). No kidding. My setup is perfect and the crossfire works amazingly keeping the consistent rate I wanted. Heck I only paid 70 and compared to other tanks, its just as good. I also believe people are a little persuaded by price of the $400 tanks, and you all should look at reviews found here, www.pbreview.com, on all tanks, accesories, etc. It has worked very well for me and is true to the value of the product.

                      BTW: look for a review on the brass eagle delux mask. Read those reviews because I think you will get a kick out of what people say.

                        well i used to have a pmi 48/3k, basically the same as yours. and i liked it but i sold it to get a smaller 51ci tank. but right now, im just getting into tournies and my gun is already heavy enough(emag) and i want a fiber tank. so i will probably get either a 68/3k or a 45/45. which one would you pick out of ACI, PMI, or Crossfire 45/45's?

                              Wel, I have a BE gun case. It's actually (insert four letter adjective here) nice, although it's a kind of soft plastic. Plenty hard for it's job, but, well, when I think of a gun case I'd like something it'd take a power tool to crack through.
