hey just i'm about a but an angel 1 and i am super excited. i was looking at the wgp 68/4500 tank and it says that it is adjustable between high and low pressure, but it only goes as low as 450 psi. and i was looking at the owners manual and it says to operate at 400 psi. is operating at 450 ok? do i have to buy a completely adjustable tank? i'm also not trying to spend a TON of money on a tank. lemme know what you guys think! thanks!

Options of an adjustable tank are nice...I've never owned one personally...So I'd have to say get a preset and you'd be sitting pretty..Oh make sure is lp, which is not NECESSARY, but preferred.

yeah all LP tanks are 450psi anyways so you are good there =D. you can also use a myth reg which are 600psi and should beable to use any HP reg which is 800.

gotcha so a lp tank is just preferred rather then a requirement?

Correct, for optimum performance a LP tank is the best to use for an Angel 1.

Love crossfire tanks. Crossfire has been around forever and probably be around for a long time. Their tanks are reasonably priced, high flowing and are colored coded to show pressure. Blue reg indicates low pressure. I find the reg to be a nice comfortable length as well. Lots of good tanks out there but hard to go wrong with crossfire.

your arm length can also factor in ...the newer PE tanks are a good inch or more longer than the crossfire, so some taller guys that dont like looking like a t-rex when they play prefer PE.
i have crossfire and PE and they both are great.

some A1s wont chrono below 300 with a HP tank on them but u can always do the mini reg mod in the stickies to get it below 300. But if ur just buying a new tank for the gun anyways its prolly just best to buy a LP tank.
I agree with poopresearch, hard to go wrong with a crossy and prolly the best priced tank for what u get. 68/4500 for 160$ isnt to shabby compared to some of the other tanks on the market

I use both a crossfire LP tank, and a Nitro duck adjustable. Both work great with the A1. If you're one who likes to tune your marker for performance the adjustable is the way to go, but the difference is minimal at best. a regular LP tank is your best bet.
