Filling a paintball tank using a Scuba Tank

by on 2009/12/26


This is how to fill a paintball tank using a scuba tank. You will need- $150 Scuba TAnk $40 Fill Station Usually it costs about $20 per year to maintain your scuba tank (hydro and visual inspection), and about $4 to $5 to fill it at your local scuba shop. With 2 or 3 of these, you can play backyard paintball for days. Enjoy!

yeah you just bring that scuba tank to a scuba shop or a paintball shop and they will fill it for you most likely for less than ten dollars

But you can hook up your gun to the air compressor…there’s a video on here showing you how..but you need an air filter for your compressor. :)
