Compressed Air and different forums

[MattPaintballer]

Okay I'm in a weird kind of pickle. I asked a few different forums what compressed air tank would be best for someone without much money. Forum 1 said tanks A, B, or C. Forum 2 said tanks D, E, or F, etc etc. So, I have put together a list of tanks that suit my budget's needs (around $200). I ask, which of these would you suggest?

Air America
Angel (the cheap one)
Bulldog
Centerflag
Crossfire
Mac Dev
Nitro Duck

bulldog or crossfire, no question.

[tjmpaintball06]

air america are the absolute best, but they r way out of your price range.

[punkncat]

For the price I suggest crossfire.I have owned many and had no problems.

(looking around for piece of wood)

Nitro Duck's are awesome. You can get a fixed output 68/4500 for less then $200, and a screw-in adjustable 68/4500 for about $240.

I've heard some good stuff about Crossfire systems also.

What marker are you planning on using it on? If its a mag, keep in mind that the Angel Air (cheap one lol) and the Mac Dev systems dont have a high enough output pressure to run a mag.

I'm happy with my 88/45K Java stubby. We'll see in the next couple weeks how it performs on my new X-valve...

i got the 92/4500 crossfire..i like it..never fails me..costed me 180..love it..i suggest it

[tjmpaintball06]

with a mechanical mag go with an adjustable definitely. you can get more bounce and performance that way. try looking for a used one on ebay. look for a air america or flatline. ive used both as well as pure energy. either get flatline or air america for sure.

I suggest you get a nitro duck but the bull dogs are rebuildable if it ever does fail. My nitro duck has never given me any real problems to ths date though. Plus i got it for only $129 at 888paintball.

[TeamNausea]

Id say crossfire for sure!

[Fixion]

Air America or Crossfire

I love Air America

Hrmmn... I am curious. What are the false problems that the Nitro Duck has given you, since it never gave you 'real' ones?

I'll be the black sheep and say centerflag, nice quality and affordable, hasn't failed me yet

[Nick O time]

if you dont have too much cash i would recommend either a crossfire or the centerflag, the centerflag presets that is. i love my centerflags they have never failed me yet.

I'll tell you what I know. When A friend of mine changed from a java preset to a centerflag hyperflow preset, the consistency changed from +/-5 to +/-1. In short, stay away from java, and hyperflows perform great. I haven't tried any of the others, so I can't say anything about them.
