I picked up some centerfires and a nice 22 which I had in mind for plinking and hunting. I finally came around to thinking I might want to get it suppressed (which is legal) and the cost blew me away. Anyhow on to to my point, I realized that I had the solution to the problem at hand already with the Mrod with the only downside being that dragging the pump out to the desert for refills is just not optimal as it was in NY. So the last few days Ive been doing some web research and find a few options. The max outlet pressure is only 2000 psi which is not a enough for the .25 cal Mrod http://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Benjamin_Air_Tank_2000_psi_Output/2152 There is this option, but a bit more costly http://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Benjamin_Carbon_Fiber_Tank_90_cu_in_Gauge_Hose_w_Female_Quick_Disconnect/4203 There appears to be options along these lines, but I can not find any info on how it can be modified to allow output to 3000psi http://www.walmart.com/ip/20666502?adid=22222222227015147505&wmlspartner=wlpa&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=&wl3=17425571950&wl4=&wl5=pla&veh=sem Lastly, there are options like this and I think the 6 cu ft one would give me if the math is correct something like 600 fills? http://airbuddy.com/contents/en-us/d73_worthington_aluminum_tanks.html Id love to have the best of both worlds where I could at least get 6 or so fills off a bottle while hanging out over a ground squirrel or marmot field and portability. So Im curious what other have done in this situation? _________________ Benjamin Marauder .25 cal scoped with Bushnell 4-16/40AO CF with Hill hand pump Gamo Hunter 220 .177 with CP 4-16/AO   Posted: Fri Nov 09, 2012 1:21 pm rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC Realistically, for a small tank to pack with you to fill a 3000 psi rifle, you want/need a 4500 psi tank.... It doesn't have to have a regulator if you are careful, but a reg. set to your fill pressure makes it easier....

Would this work with an adapter valve? Anyway, my pump has broken for the disco... looking to go with a tank myself.   Posted: Fri Nov 09, 2012 4:41 pm twalter Veteran Member Joined: 12 Jun 2011 Posts: 180 Location: East TN USA viper2788 wrote: How about this one? http://www.trademygun.com/p-200-ninja-50ci-4500psi-hpa-n2-carbon-fiber-paintball-tank-black.aspx?%22cagpspn=pla%22 Its a paintball hpa tank... small, light and holds a lot.

Looks good overall, mentions being able to adjust the output but doesn't say to what or how much. _________________ Benjamin Marauder .25 cal scoped with Bushnell 4-16/40AO CF with Hill hand pump Gamo Hunter 220 .177 with CP 4-16/AO   Posted: Fri Nov 09, 2012 6:56 pm rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC That Ninja tank is very likely regulated at 850 psi output.... those are the ones adjustable with shims from the factory.... but only DOWN to about 550 psi.... not up....

I was just browsing over there and it looks like Shawn worked with this guy http://www.airtanksforsale.com/ . The prices actually arent all that bad considering. _________________ Benjamin Marauder .25 cal scoped with Bushnell 4-16/40AO CF with Hill hand pump Gamo Hunter 220 .177 with CP 4-16/AO Selecting a high pressured air tank for Mrod     Air Gun Home Forum Index » Accessories You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
