: Try your local paintball shop. The biggest problem I've see with CO2 fill stations is the gasket just doesn't seem to last as long as you'd like.

: As for filling our tank it seems to work best with 5 gunners + the driver, although we've had up to 13 (maybe 14) guys in it for some troop insertions. We now have a double rear door setup that makes loading pretty easy along with one hatch in the turret that I climb in an out of with no problems and two forward hatches, one above the driver and the other where the passenger seat used to be.

: We usually fill it with 5 gallons of super unleaded prior to the game and due to the lack of planning during it's construction we have a little hatch inside on the floor behind the drivers seat that lets us get to the gas cap.

: As for our HPA tanks I've got a Bulldog SCUBA adapter that I actually use to power the cannon but tanks can be filled from that.

: That should cover the more common tank filling ;)

Ok I see you guys are way into this and I'm just getting started, and maybe I should have read the threads... but who would have thunk, tanks I mean tank tanks in paint ball! Man what a game that must be. And I appreciated the info and the humor!
