Paintball 20 oz Tank

[frogiii]

Can this 20oz paintball Co2 tank work for calcium reactor set up?
should it last long enough

 

[raskal311]

It will work but its not going to last, 20 oz is only a bit over 1 lb.

How long does 5lbs tank last on regular 2,3 drops of use?

5- 6 months for me...can you get a regulator onto a paintball tank? I think the fittings are different.

You can use paintball regulators on paintball tanks just fine

so, if 5lbs lasts that long it should at least last few month with this tank wouldn't it? i got few that i dont use anymore. can these be connected together? is any places sells maybe like an adaptor, extention or something?

your best bet is to go to air gas and rent the co2 tank and buy the regulator....

Nice what kind of gun do you have? I use to have a tricked out 97 autococker. Conquest was the ****!

I've Spider Shuttle an old guns. I've 3 of them and 3 20oz tanks. I was just thinking i could use these tanks for my fish tank instead of collecting dust in Garage.

Paintball...yah baby! I just got into this sport and its hella FUN! Alot of $$ thou...just like this hobby.
But then, I have a 06 Bob Long Infamous marker. =)

I used to play tournament paintball but left the sport cause it isnt fun anymore...Too many kids whineing every game....

I only play with real guns now.....Real ammo is lot more expensive than buying paintballs!

 

[frogiii]

I hope you dont shoot people like you did with paintball.....

I would agree it would not only easier, but potentially safer to get a 5lb tank, rather than trying to rig something up with the paintball tanks.

I've got an old school mini mag RT gathering dust in my garage. My sons have the '05 Bob Long Intimidators...those markers are amazing!

You can get regulator fittings specifically for paintball tanks.

Search Google for the "red sea paintball regulator" set.
