i am getting a 05 speed in a month and im making sure i got everything i need when it gets here. i got a 3-a steel 47/3000 tank for free from my friend ive been using for a while now. will these be suitable for my 05 speed until i can upgrade?

is it an LP or HP tank, if it is LP then it should work just fine...it is a bit small you you may have to fill often, but it will work just fine if it is LP.

Please don't get 3A... When your o-rings and burst disks blow off you'll know why.

For a first time buyer I'd settle with a Nitro Duck system...

If you are looking for an ASA (screw-in) system, Centerflag, WDP and MacDev have very good systems, if you are looking for am adjustable system, I would put my money on the MacDev 04 Conquest

I would stay away from Nitro duck I have jsut read a whole bunch of articles about the regs failing and the tank firing off like MISSILES!!



Looks like someone has been reading the thread on PBN. ND makes great regs and bottles, you can't blame them for something that was user error. That's what caused the reg to fail and nothing else.

The 05 Speed reg was built to handle HP and LP tanks, so using the 3A should be fine. However your best bet is to invest in a nice LP tank in the future.

A high pressure output is fine but low pressure is reccomended its just that 3-A is not a good brand of tank. ShotgunWeddingz is right. get a different tank. I use a pure energy HP and it works fine for me.

What are you talking about. ND is a great company and through the many years I have been using and trading their equipment I have never had a problem with it. Stop reading PBN as fact.
