Title: Filling an air tank
Post by: JIM106 on April 21, 2011, 01:17:41 AM
This is my first post on the GTA.I bought my first tuna trigger 3 years ago.I read the GTA on a daily basis and have learned alot.I have been a machinist for 25 years and started designing 5 yrs ago.At my work i have stock,machines,and mcmaster carr at my finger tips.The last 2 years I have made some nice rigs.I will post pics sometime.Enough about me here is what I need to know.For Christmas I got an Mrod and pump and I don't want to pump anymore just fill and shoot.I live half way between Boston,Ma and Providence,RI off RT95.Does anyone know of a place that fills air tanks up to 3500 or 4500 psi.
What I am also looking for is a used steel 100-120cuft 3500 scuba tank.So if anybody knows of any dive shops in my area that would be great.I would like to thank gta in so many ways.Airguning has given me so much joy and peace.My wife thinks I 'm crazy because I'm talking about this "Charlie guy".thank you in advance Jim

Hi Jim,
Welcome to a great place. I'm not far from you, in RI.
There have to be a ton of places to get that filled due to your area being next to the ocean. Lots of Dive spots so must be dive shops. Fall River, New Bedford.
Check the yellow pages and Craigs list for tanks, always some on there. Going to look at some tomorrow myself since I just got into PCP's.
