Are the HK Army Alpha Tanks too Light?

[@emcferran]

People worrying about weight and I can’t even get my local shops to fill my tank to 4500

[@RuinedClips]

When I owned a Paintball store, we didn’t fill tanks to 4500 because it was so much more stress on the compressor and most people wanted to test their guns anyways so they didn’t really need 4500. Infection

[@rahmadyannurwidhib6213]

@@RuinedClips what’s the ideal psi to fill the tank

[@Isaac_L..]

They need to make a 90+ cu inch tank that's around the same size as a normal (Ninja) 77 cu inch tank.

[@TheMindUnlocked]

Facts; because one of the things taught for setups is when holding the marker in your hand with tank screwed, should be length of your forearm for a a comfortable hold when shooting

[@TheMindUnlocked]

Itd be amazing to see how big of capacity they can go before it gets too crazy; but still be great for fields and fill up stations being light bottles at huge offerings

[@bobspalding2477]

@@TheMindUnlockedAt least there are tank extensions if you have longer arms. Can’t imagine needing more than 77 when that’ll get you 12+ pods on just about any marker

2:45 That flip though 🔥🔥

[@aidanafshar8744]

I'd use the 77ci with a longer powerhouse reg if I got one of the HK tanks!

[@endoflavaz6980]

Looks very nice, but i think most people will stick to their current 68's to 80's for the most part. I personally like the more prominent back side of the "standard" tank instead of the flatter one on the HK 77, simply because i think it hugs your shoulder better and players have better control. That being said, I've never tried this new one and maybe I'm wrong but like most people, I'm not gonna drop $250 to find out.

[@corbindallas1954]

Options are a good thing, especially if they're good options. 👍

[@virtual_balboa]

I use a Ninja SL2 77 with Powerhouse long body reg lol. Need tanks to be longer

[@NimaRazavi]

Can I ask what's the length of your tank in CM/Inches?

[@virtual_balboa]

@@NimaRazavi about 11"

[@iHasCaek]

pretty soon we'll be seeing woven carbon fiber tanks instead of these spun fibers for even more weight savings. gonna be nuts. i'm surprised they havent made gun exteriors with carbon fiber yet. that will also make the prices real gucci.

[@c.j.deyoungiii2704]

Me too!

[@visje66]

Light? In Europe we have lighter tanks than these for like 10+ years. Definitely not too light. 😊

[@Trevor-mm5ji]

Just bought one

[@IanFitty]

The shorter length alone is a deal breaker for me. A few ounces at the cost of a comfortable hold? No thanks.

[@TWH-k9i]

I'd like to see longer skinnier tanks instead of shorter fatter tanks but that just me. I've got a 45/4500 that's not a stubby and I love that tank for my pump gun.

[@two-bit463]

I had an Empire 68ci 4500psi and I just got the Ninja SL2 77ci 4500psi with the V3 PRO Reg man what a difference plus I now use only SP markers I just bought the Shocker ERA and I love it and my Mech is a Shocker CVO super great markers.

[@sloanreisfelt9254]

What do you like more about the 77, I’m thinking about upgrading as well

[@weroliera]

Too light? Absolutely not.

[@BAGofTALENT]

People are obsessed with weight when it doesn't matter at all with all the current paintball gear . My 68 first strike tank is super light and I got it with a HK reg for $130 .

[@dillonkoss6121]

Have the same tank and love it

[@Likeaworm]

I have a couple first strike tanks! Good stuff

[@Jarandjar]

All Paintball tanks are just relabeled from the manufacturer.

[@tonymante8759]

a few manufacters make them all primary use for these is in mining not paintball :D hence why you will always see lots of the same born and hydro date for a while because the PB community gets like 1% of the tanks made most go for mining and forced air respirator systems globally only when there is surplus do they sell lots off to PB companies.

[@ProxityProductions]

Hk is the only ones with this shape tank so not necessarily true
