anyone have a used tank laying around i could buy?  for c02 or c25.  new ones are way to expensive for me at the moment.  dont really care about size, small ones are fine.

If you want it for long term, check the ten year lease. It's a lot more money up front but comes out to penneys a day.

Think mine was $100 for a 5 year lease from air gas.  About $45 to fill it.  Its not really worth owning your own tank as most shops charge $20/yr to keep the inspection up to date.
