Carbon dioxide is more accessible than compressed air tanks and can be found at several retailers already pre-filled.

Another factor players consider when choosing tanks with co2 or compressed air for paintball is their skill level. The carbon dioxide tanks are generally preferred and work best with beginning players. These tanks work better with the majority of paintball guns and don?t have to be re-tested and re-certified where the compressed air tanks need re-testing and re-certification every 3-5 years. Generally, the compressed air tanks work best with the advanced paintball guns and delivers an optimal rate of fire year round. The carbon dioxide tanks become unreliable and may deliver inconsistent shooting during winter season.

The preference of the paintball tank comes down to each individual. Whichever tank is preferred, both can be purchased at the Splatball Paintball Store located at our downtown location.
