AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Does anyone know a place online, or that I can mail my tank to direct, to get it hydro'd? I don't have a local scuba shop and my local PB store sucks... I'd like to get it hydro'd and in my hands ASAP.

Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.
try asking your local fire dept... they have to test their equipment(oxygen tanks...etc) they should atleast be able to point you in the right direction
atleast then you don't have to send your tank off and i think it'd be cheaper than having a paintball place do it
TheDuelist "The problem is that Tom has developed the VW Beetle of the paintball industry. It's almost too good to change and far too reliable."
Remove the valve and take it to any fire extinguisher refiller. They will hydro your tank and put the new ASTM sticker on it for about $15-20. All these paintball shops are rippin' people off by charging them out the whazoo.
Some of the places will be like Acme Fire Safety. That's who I use in the Nashville Tn area.
I'm luck, I have a local scuba shop who sold me a used tank for $100. They don't care if you use it for paintballing. Heck, they even fill it up for me. Last year I had my tank hydroed through them and paid $16. It's usually $20, but I had a fill card and they knocked off for the price of a fill and just punched my card.
Thanks for all the advice, especially the links to the online/USPS sites, and teh list of approved people in my area. I'm going to try to find a fire extinguisher place on monday, if that doesn't work, hydro2go!
Thanks!
