(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); What is the difference between a 20 oz CO2 tank and a 9 oz CO2 tank? If I go with the 9 oz, it just means I will have to fill up more, correct? There is no advantage other than that?

Also, is this a good deal:
-Spyder VS1 w/ 16" barrel, Virtue board, and clamping feedneck
-Halo B Electric hopper
-9 oz tank

... all for $150. Is that good?

Should I go with the 20 oz tank? Or should I get the Guralla Air HPA he is offering for extra money?

i have the 20 oz tank (its really better i would recommend that over the smaller one). and for a disadvantage for the 9 oz?-when the tank gets low the paintballs dont shoot as far and hard so having a bigger tank means it will take longer to get to that point. As for the deal that you mentioned i would take it if your just beginning, but i prefer tippmanns. but spyders are also really good, quote me if you want any more information.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I am a beginner, and I really don't plan on going pro or playing 6 days a week or anything. Just casually.

Well this gun is customized with a Virtue board, so it is automatic as well. And I play on playing Woodsball mostly.

Yeah I've played once haha, me and a buddy rushed the right side of the arena and me and him wiped out the whole team. It was all of our first times playing, though, so don't take that as me trying to brag about how good I am haha.

Shiver do you lift?
Yeah it means you need to fill it up more, but theres other factors like PSI. Higher, is usually the better.. As long as its not too high.. or the paintballs will explode.

Usually its the smaller one, but ive known larger to do good. Really it should say it on the bottle.
