Please join me in welcoming AirTanksForSale to Airgun Nation!!
Joe Brancato has been recognized for two passions in the sport of airguns: a dedication for making quality products, and a strong desire to help others in the sport. The passion for quality and precision for his products can be traced to his background as an Engineer/Physicist in Aerospace. Joe’s mantra stems from his days in the aircraft industry “99.9% good isn’t good enough for an aircraft and it isn’t good enough if it comes from us”. It MUST be perfect to leave his store, because it has his personal name on it.
Joe discovered his love for helping others learn as he worked his way through college as a teacher’s assistant in physics. He genuinely likes assisting people, be it guiding others on the science of airguns, helping people to shoot better, etc. This passion for helping others is evident on his Youtube Channel “AirGun Scientist” https://tinyurl.com/AirGunScientist-com where he regularly reviews airguns and shows instructional videos. Joe got the name AirGun Scientist from Rossi Morreale, the host of “AMERICAN AIRGUNNER”, a TV show on which he appears often. Here they review the new Gauntlet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zc6BGAKKwRM&t=
Almost 20 years ago, when SCBA (fireman) tanks were the common method to fill PCP airguns, Joe read of numerous hoses catastrophically failing while filling airguns. After discovering that the metal braided hoses that were being sold were from the paintball industry and only designed for 1800 PSI working pressure, Joe decided to design high quality, safe hose assemblies for Air, Nitrogen, Helium and CO2 that could easily handle 6000 PSI (and higher). Hoses capable of +9,000 PSI working pressure and 30,000 PSI burst pressure were used exclusively, and stainless steel fittings took the place of brass. Joe became known as the quality leader for filling airguns.

After hearing stories of people overfilling their airguns from SCBA tanks, Joe saw another necessity; the need for a much safer tank valve to fill PCP airguns. He designed the TJ3 one-way Slo-Flo valve. The TJ3 allows a tank to SLOWLY and more safely fill a PCP, while still being able to quickly fill the carbon fiber tank from a compressor. This eliminated the danger of over-filling a PCP that sometimes occurred using tanks with SCBA valves. AirTanksForSale also decided to offer a second gauge that allowed users to easily see how much air was remaining in their tank at a glance. An American made carbon fiber tank was mated to the TJ3, and http://www.AirTanksForSale.com was born. AirTanksForSale is the ONLY company that sells large carbon fiber tanks that are made in the USA for filling PCP airguns. They prefer to sell American products to keep Americans employed. As people recognized the quality, customers such as Crosman, Shoebox Compressors, the US Navy, DOD, NASA, and other industries understood AirTanksForSale was the place to go if they needed something custom designed and delivered on time.
AirTanksForSale continued to grow. ExpertHPA.com and TopGun-Airguns.com were added to the company profile and JB Sales Inc. was created. Recently when it became the North and South American distributor for Zbroia Airguns, ZbroiaUSA.com was added to the company profile. Continuing their growth, they out-grew their first retail store and recently moved into a second, much larger store with a very large and well-stocked showroom in Huntington Beach, California.
Inventory continues to be added, such as Carette compressors, Alpha moisture filters, and just about every airgun brand is stocked (Air Force, Brocock, Crosman, Daystate, FX, Huben, Leshiy, RAW, Taipan, Umarex, Vulcan (AGT), Zbroia etc.).
Their philosophy is: We believe a rising tide floats all boats, and what’s good for the sport is eventually good for all of us (shooters, and retailers). That’s why we are glad to provide our products to many of the high quality dealers that think similarly, such as Airgun Depot and Utah Air, as well as manufacturers such as Crosman and Shoebox Compressors.” As dealers, let’s work TOGETHER to build the sport of Airgunning.
