Well I just got myself a new pump gun (custom built half blocked prostock) And now I need a tank for it, At the moment I'm trying to be cost efficient so keep that in mind. So far the 2 options that came to mind for me are either a 13/3000 pure energy air tank, or a 35/3000 tank

35/3000:

13/3000:

Just wondering which of these would be a better option for open class pump play, which would I get more shots out of? I was leaning towards the 35/3000 but I want the opinion of some other pump players. Thanks in advance.
Also I want some sort of a tank cover for it, where could I get one?

(sorry for newb questions, been using my bros tanks for past while so never bought 1 myself)

The 35/3000 would be much better for open class, because with the 13/3k you will be refilling constantly. However if you don't mind refilling after every game then by all means get the 13.
Personally I use a 13 on my phantom to play modified stock class, however I have a 45/4500 for my open class trilogy (soon to be T2 :)) because I don't have to refill it nearly as much and it balances better with a sportshot. However the 13 feels really nice on a bottom-lined phantom with stock class feed.

Thanks for the help :) Now the tricky part to find a 35/3000 used or something since buying one and shipping to canada would cost almost as much as I can get a peanut tank for haha

Do you already have a tank for your current setup? If so just use that. I run a 13/3000 on my T2 and run it vert on my VSC Phantom.

At the moment, I do not. I was using my brothers 4oz CO2 tank or occasionally his 13/3000 ninja on my modified stock class phantom. However I'm looking for a tank that will get me more shots than 100-125 per fill. And I don't have the money for a 50/45 stubby :( So I saw that Ninja tank as my next best option

*edit* Picked up a used 35/3000 thanks for the help everyone

Unless youre using a phantom, i would say get the biggest tank you can afford. Most people like myself use it for modified stock class, for the weight and even with a joyride pack thats about 100 shots anyways.
