HPA Compressors are pretty pricy. For about $100 you could buy a fill station and rent a 50lb bottle of liquid C02, and fill your tanks whenever you need. Costs about $30 to have a bulk bottle refilled. It is cheaper than paying for each fill of CO2, and a much lower investment($50-$60 for a fill station) than a compressor, and new bottles. If you really want to switch to HPA, you may be able to get your bottles filled at a SCUBA shop, or a local fire house also. I have had my SCUBA tanks refilled at a local fire house for free many times, as long as my hydro test was current. Just something to check into if your interested. : I'm going to have to get an aircompressor because where I get my co2 tanks filled, they are are going to start charging 10 bucks for a 12oz and I didn't bother asking about 20s. So It's time to switch to nitro. : As long as I can get a compressor that is rated at 3000PSI, I can fill a 3000psi nitro tank correct? What do I need to fill it? : Thanks.
