Pappahog41 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 hi guys, I'm new to the HPA side of things and have a question. I'm a fat old tub of lard, I have a TM MTR16 running HPA, how do you guys carry your tanks? I'm using a condor recon chest rig as its one of the few things that fits me, so would like some advice as to the best options for the tank. As I own a chest rig there is no back to it...

Supporters Adolf Hamster Posted April 13, 2020 Supporters Share Posted April 13, 2020 i use the back pouch on the smersh, it's literally the perfect thing for it. however i've seen folk gut hydration bladder backpacks and run their tanks in them, might work a bit better for your setup.

Pappahog41 Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 I am open to getting a different set up, but it needs to be big... like 60" big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommikka Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 What cylinder are you using and do you have air fills on site? A 13ci 3000psi cylinder is easier than a 48ci cylinder to accommodate on a vest etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappahog41 Posted April 13, 2020 Author Share Posted April 13, 2020 im using a 13ci cylinder and yes the site does fill up bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The part about site fills was just whether you’d need convincing to go to a 13ci from a 48ci, or if you didn’t have site fills and needed extra air etc I can’t think back for certain - but a MOLLE MP5 pouch should fit a 13ci, and would fit one column of MOLLE. I’ve used them for paintball pods, which is tight at first, and I’m sure I’ve put my 13ci in one before. (I prefer to lose the remote line and use the bottle on the gun to avoid tangling etc) There’s also the option to make a skeleton strap bottle holder for a 13ci. Two or three horizontal strap loops and one vertical strap to secure it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukeB Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I use the small WAS cargo packs. Either as a standalone pack or molle on a 901 back panel. I prefer to keep the entire rig in a bag to protect it from direct hits, but I've seen a lot of people using these https://www.highpressureairsoft.co.uk/store/c52/Extras.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albiscuit Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Pretty sure the condor rig has a hydration back attachment which would work, or I have seen people with them on the back of their belt set ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steveocee Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 @Pappahog41 get yourself one of these. Ideal if you want to chuck a tank on your back and swaps out the existing straps. https://condoroutdoor.com/242-hydro-harness-integration-kit.html Just put one on my multicam rig and it's brilliant.
