Where to buy CO2 tanks.

**KShoes** · 10-03-2010, 03:46 PM

No one bought in BK or Queens? Closest Airgas according to their locator is in the Bronx and quite a drive if I want to avoid bridge tolls.

Im accually looking for a place on Long Island, live in Franklin Square. Spent all this money on a complete system and can't find anywhere to fill it. Thought the paintball store would b/c been filling smaller co2 tanks there for years but they won't.

Nevermind apparently there is a place 2 blocks from me.

Darkmatter where are you located? I want to do the paintball 20oz CO2 mod i found in the DIY section, and was wondering where I could get those filled in either Queens, or LI.

I know there are several paintball shops ni Queens.
Here is a site of cousins paintball http://www.cousinspaintball.com/inde...res.franklinsq

There is stingray paintball in brooklyn that refills paintball tanks.
I had 3 tanks filled out there as I did the paintball CO2 set up you mentioned on 2 of my tanks.

Wicket_lfe · 10-27-2010, 05:33 PM

yup i eventually bought the tank and a valve from cousins on LI, way out east. I'll probably just buy another tank and hopefully only have to do refills of both like once a year. thanks.

some of the better beer distributors and beer making shops will refill.

I went to Clinton Welding Supply Co Inc to fill my tank. 18 bucks for a 10lb refill. No exchange. Its a bit of a drive but my cylinder is new so I did not want to exchange. He filled on the spot, about a 2 minute wait.
