Ok. I'll give this a shot.

44 cuft carbon fiber (4500 psi) tank 2000-3000   28 fills
88 cuft carbon fiber (4500 psi) tank 2000-3000   56 fills
80 cuft steel scuba  (3400 psi) tank 2000-3000   20 fills

Depending on what pressure you run the Mrod, these numbers may change a little, plus or minus. I'm not sure where you live but if you live near a scuba shop, ask someone there and they should be able to help you fill a tank. If not, try to find a local fire department if you go the scba/carbon fiber tank route.

You can pick up tanks online. You can find used ones on ebay, craigslist, etc. Or you can get a new one from either Joe Brancato, or Airhog. They will set you up with everything you need.

I hope this helps a bit. There are a lot of knowledgeable people on this forum. I'm sure someone else will help you in the right direction. Congrats on your new purchase. You will love that Mrod.

I got my 80cuft tank new from a local dive shop and registered in their data base to get refils for my air guns.  When there's not enough to fill my M-rod there's plenty to fill my Disco.
