What kind of tanks are you guys running with your Etek 3?

Just wondering what everyone else used. I've got a buddy's PE 45/45 for now until I get my hands on a 50/45. LP or HP?

the s3 regulator can run both, but to avoid dropoff in shooting i would recommend mid (550 psi) to high (800psi) pressure tanks. an adjustable ninja reg would cover all the bases.

I figured as much. Never was one to love learning about all the technicalities.

I run an old Pure Energy 45/45 Hp and I love it. But it's all personal preference. When you pick a tank you should hold the trigger frame of your marker in your hand and the tank should come to the inside of your elbow. Some people like it a little longer and some a little shorter. Just go to your local store and try a couple different tanks on your marker.

Oh, I know how to pick tanks and all about that. I was just being nosy and wondering what everyone else preferred. I'm content with the Ninja 50/45.

Older Crossfire 68/4500. Works well but needs a smaller gauge.
