    Which Tank?

    Hey, I'm buyin a Mag in about a week and I want to know what size nitro tank I should buy. I'm a pretty versatile player, I play back and front depending on who i'm playing with so I want something that would'nt be too huge but nothing too small.

    I appreciate your opinion

    68/4500 seems to be the optimal size, not too big, not too small, not too heavy...well u get the picture

      depends what you play, if only 5 man stuff , go with the 68, if you play 10 man and are a back player you should go 88 or 90,

        I play like that too Tony, and I only use 88/4500 Stubby tanks...you never know when you need to really unload on someone and most often the extra air does come in handy. I personally run my mag as follows: Black teflon body, 12" dye alum barrel, blade Intelliframe, black CP flame drop and 88/4500 Pmi stub w/dye tank cover. It's light enough to not really notice but still pretty small in comparison to other markers. Plus the flame drops the tank to the very back of the gripframe so it still tucks nicely.

            Here's a handy chart

            If you know about how many shots you would like to get out of the tank:

              if you play at fields where you can get air fills frequently, get a 45/45, otherwise I'd recommend a 68/45. I have a 88/45 but I find it's too big and heavy... I've been working out but the tank makes my gun hard to maneuver and use. Maybe it's just me.
