        i had one. its just a carleton 68 ci fiber wrapped tank with a co2 valve. it held like 3 lbs of co2 on a cool day. last all week and weigh a ton. the only problem i have heard is that when a carbon fiber tank is used for co2 it almost always never passes rehydro...not sure if this is 100% true or just an exageration from the guy i talked to, but he said the drastic low temprature change each fill and discharge is harder on carbon fiber than it is on aluminum.

          That guy is right, it probably won't pass a 3k/4.5k rehydro, but since CO2 can't develop even half that pressure, they don't have to be hydro'ed at all.

          I just wouldn't use it for HPA again.

            i thought only tanks that are under 2 inches in diameter dont have to be hydroed. the tank i had was a regular hpa tank just adapted for co2. it had a hydro date and the govt cert required stuff just like an hpa tank.
