A few questions on the Paintball Tanks:

1) Where in the Greater Toronto Area (better yet Markham/Richmond Hill area) can I buy a standard 9oz CO2 Paintball Tank + hose with adapter to fit that tank?
2) Are these tanks sold charged with CO2? Where do you guys re-charge them?
3) Do these tanks require a pressure adapter for use with airguns or is the pressure same/similar to that of a small 12 gram CO2 cartridge?

Thank you in advance for the information.

1. I get them from Badlands paintball city. (401&409)

2. 1st refill is free with the bottle.
you can refill them there for $ 5.00 perfill, doesn't matter the size of the bottle.

3. can be installed almost on any gun with a proper bulkfill adapter
for the gun. You get better and more consistent shots out of the bigger bottle than co2 powerlet.

co2 pressure is constant and isnt dependant on tank size (temperature is a different story)

Depending on your shooting style the bottle size is important. If you are shooting single shot 9, 12, 16 once are fine, if using a full auto Drozd the smaller tanks will freeze than you will need a 16 or 20 ounce, just try getting 2 full powered full auto Drozd mags from a 12g bulb. Best thing is the bulk setup pays for itself in a hurry. :D Also remember once you have the bulk setup you can switch to non temperture sensitive HPA like I do for winter shooting. 8)

Bought a coiled remote pressure kit plus a CO2 tank at Badlands East today. Now comes the Drozd magazine modification part. I will publish some pictures of the end result if everything goes according to the plan. Thanks again to all of you!
