    I have a question. Does anyone know where to get a Co2 tank? And what parts are needed so it can fill my Co2 bottles. I am looking for a 5 pound tank for my own refil station. In NABS we have the communal tank but if that person does not bring it then there is no CO2 to battle.

    You can get a small tank at most welding supply places that also sell other gasses. If you get one with a siphon tupe you wont have to hold the tank upside down when you're filling your bottles but im not sure if you can get one of those on a tank smaller than 20#s but a 5# tank is light enough its not an issue. As for a fill station try a paintball shop or look online with paintball stuff I think they are like $40.

    50# tanks all have siphon tubes & cost about $25 to fill. Unfortunately, they cost about $250+ to buy one. Some places will rent them, which costs more in the long run but isn't such a big hit up front.
