The best way I have found to go, owning both a store and a field, is to buy a couple scuba tanks. They are extremely portable, very reasonably priced, cheap to fill, and you can get about 15,000 shots off of one. The set up required would be a scuba fill station, which you can buy from me or any other paintball store for $65.00. Then just check your local scuba shop, they might have used scuba tanks they will sell you. I bought mine new for 135.00 each, but I would expect you might have to pay up to 160.00, depending on where you go. You want to because then you can fill off of one, and use the other as a manual cascade, using it to boost your tank up close to the 3,000 psi mark. I have players who can fill there 68cu. tank and use it for five good games without running out. Usually you can get a scuba filled for $3-5. at someplaces you'll need a dive card, diver certification that is, but sometimes you can get by just by telling them it is just for paintball and it would be used for diving. That's my best advise. it's way cheaper then going nitrogen.
