Air tank

[alanmoore]

I just got my first PCP rifle after a couple of years with break barrels. I am looking for a used 4500 psi air tank with regulator at a very inexpensive price. I can't afford $200-$400.00

Alan,


You didn't say how big of a tank. I just got the one from AoA for $300 on sale brand new.

Another option as suggested in many threads here would be to get an ebay used 30 minute SCBA & CGA347 adapter for less than $250. The tanks have a 15 year life from manufacturers date. So if you get a 2010 tank, it will be ok till 2025. Hydro test every 5years. I think a 30 minute tank is 75cuft or 6.8l if I remember correctly.

This may not be the place to cut corners. 4500 psi is 4500 psi. Little bit like cheap tires and condums How cheap can you afford to be?

I wouldn’t call buying and using a used SCBA tank cheap. Those tanks are just as good if not better than the new tanks you can buy for $600+. I’m pretty sure firemen wouldn’t run in and out of burning buildings with these as their breathing air supply if they weren’t safe. Just my two cents...

Hi all, 

Totally new to PCP, my gun is Diana Outlaw in .177. On Tanks how do you calculate your potential fills. Using a 3L 4500psi carbon tank and filling a 210ml rifle tank. 

thanks mate
