Most paintball air tanks that are used today mount onto the back of a paintball gun, and provide the firepower for your paintball gun. Air tanks usually hold CO2, N2, or high pressure air which is pushed in and through the chamber of the gun when a player pulls the trigger. Most Air tanks are compatible with the semi-automatic markers available at your local pro Shop and at online stores like Paintball Discounters. Some paintball tanks are attached to the vest or waist of a player and connected to a player's marker through a remote line. Most players do not use the remote line connection, but mount the tank directly to the back of the paintball marker. Some of the benefits to using the remote line technology include lightening the marker and giving the player a lot more options on how he can hold his gun. In scenario events like The Big Game, players may hold their markers for hours between breaks in the game. The remote line connection takes off a lot of weight on the marker, making it easy to hold for long periods of time. Also the remote line makes the marker apparatus much shorter and more compact. In bunker ball and speedball fields, players will often need to hide behind and shoot from bunkers of many different sizes. Behind inflatable bunkers like the horse shoe and the cube, paintball players will want to make themselves as "small" as they can. Making yourself small means keeping your marker close to your body and giving your opponent the smallest possible target to shoot at. Having big air tanks sticking out of the back of the marker may give your opponent a bigger target to shoot at.
There are over 100 excellent paintball tanks on the market, and all are designed to fit commercial semi-automatic markers. Semi-automatic paintball markers include electronic markers and mechanical markers. Paintball tanks are also referred to as air systems. The Bulldog Air system from Air Concepts and the Armageddon Air System from Air America offer reliable tanks for use through many paintball games. The Armageddon Air System screws on and off very easily.
