Most of the non C02 tanks are expensive as hell.

Most of my buddies with an electric gun have this hopper.

And one of these tanks.


PM me if you have more questions because during the offseason my activity of choice is paintballing. I woodsball though more than speedball.

Ninja N2 tanks are the best quality for cheap Hopper, I got the empire B sound activated which is like 70 bucks but it works great

tanks: crossfire makes some of the best tanks for their price. look at the 45ci/4500psi or the 68/4500psi.
do not get and 3000psi tanks, they seem to be the better buy, but in reality they are heavy as fuck and you dont get that many shots out of them.

Hopper: look at some halo's or vlocitys. halos are cheaper, and they are still great. probobly the cheapest force feeds on the market right now. the vlocitys are more expensive, but they are very light and they feed faster than a halo. those are the most popular, but you also could take a look at the torque or empires.

if you have any more questions, pm me.

If you really want to save money and dont mind the weight (It really isnt that much) buy a steely HPA tank. You can also buy a TSA Front Man halo, which is basically the same as a regular halo, at about half the price. Also, an Invert TOO is about $60 new and can keep up with the best of them.

Hope I helped :)
