Benjamin Benjamin Marauder Fill assembly-

1st, VERIFY that a dive shop you'll deal with can fill SCBA tanks (not SCUBA) to a TRUE 4500psi. Forget Amazon & look on ebay. Try to find a listing for one that still has a lot of years left on it (15 year limit from year of manufacture) and, preferably, hydrotested within last 5 years. OR, portable compressor just to fill guns. Tank price varies greatly depending upon how much time remains on tank. You can also find "SCBA Fill Adapters" on ebay for around $40-$50.

If you have any friends that are fireman ask if the will fill it for you many fire departments fill their own tanks. They may even give you a tank. I have different fire departments fill mine takes them under 5 mins. I'm not sure how many shots 1 SCBA tank gets me but it is over 2000 with a marauder.

Type SCBA fill station into eBay and you can find them not badly priced
 
i wouldnt think twice about just getting a yongheng compressor off amazoid .. its alittle loud, but would be the least complicated .. just fill directly, easy peasy .. get one of those foot long gold filters to go with it, nothing fancy, 50 buck one, they mostly work by condensing water out, not filtering, just open everything to dry after use .. keep fittings and orings lubed with sillycon oil ... youll be titties with that setup ..
 
a good tank and a place to fill it makes shooting fun ! be sure the tank is DOT and know the birth date of the CF bottle , they are 15 year life tanks ! and have to be hydro tested every 5 years , so if you buy a 3 year old tank you will be driving or shipping it out for testing certification in two years of buying it , it to me is worth the cost , its nice to fill your gun in 15 QUIET seconds ! once you have a tank ALL your future guns will be ready to go when they get to your door !
