that is 3a paintball, i think its all an ebay store, any way, there products are pretty shanty quality, people have had the valve or whatever seperate from the tanks on there compressed air tanks, and they would have to empty them and reloctite em, so just save up and get a crossfire or centerflag or somethin

i bought a 3A tank from them. The guage on there hits my max flo so it wont screw in all the way.. yea so i traded it

PGMan123

Whoever does the 3A artwork clearly does not know the differance between human eyes and insect eyes.

And what's worse, he's even bad at drawing insect eyes.

they use centerflag regs, so they arent terrible. Luxfer or w/e the hell its called makes the tank; so really 3a paintball has nothing to do with it besides the pic

i still wouldnt buy it tho

Ya they just started using centerflag regs so they're not that bad anymore. You'll want to get a tank cover, just cus it would be embarassing to have those crappy unarousing drawings on your tank. Just make sure you get the new ones with the good regs. But just to be safe I'd go crossfire.

yea on/offs are awsome. I have one and it's amd sweet.
I agree- 3A tanks aren't that much cheaper then crossfires, so there is no point in sacraficing that much quality for the $25 u might save.

go for it. the ace flow reg is identicle to the hyperflow reg of centerflag's tanks (68/3000, 68/4500... etc.).

that's according to centerflag.

3a is a shady compnay. I have answered this question maybe a dozen or so times in the past year.

Ever wonder why you never see a review of any of thier products? The reason you won't see a review of any 3a products on pbreviews is because they were banned from there for having shills write bogus reviews of thier products. 3a markets mostly on E-bay where they prey on a basically uniformed customer base. Thier quality control is iffy - They buy OEM tanks and put an aftermarket reg in them, and slap on a sticker (or not, I have heard that the sticker you get comes sepearte in the box). Thier barrels are cheap and thin with very poor anno that flakes off.

But perhaps themost complelling reason not to do buisness with 3a is that their customer service is really really poor.

I have personally had difficulties with them over them sending me a different product then what I ordered, changing pictures in auctions after auctions close in order to say the mix up is "my fault." Posting negative feedback for me with the claim that "I did not attempt to resolve the issue with them prior to me posting feedback" ( which is bull and I have the e-mails to prove that I followed ALL of thier CS policies to the letter!) And finnally, they wont work with you to resolve the issue. Thier attitude is 'too damn bad for you, we already cashed the check."

So buy if you want to. I am telling anyone who is interested that you are better of buying from xpaintball.com or any other REPUTABLE dealer. You may pay a bit more, but you will be much happier in the long run.

3a is the used car salesman of the paintball industry. Buyer beware

yo thanks a lot guys for all the help. i really appreciate all the input. yeah im definatly not getting a 3A i guess.

The 47 3000 numbers mean 47 cubic inches and 3000 psi max capacity. You should try to get a 4500 psi tank, unless you're just starting. Generally, 68 cubic inches is a pretty good size.

Ebay has some issues, one of them is dealers like 3A paintball. The people that run this company should be put in jail for their own protection. I have purchased two items from them(yes, that makes me a noob!). The first was a tank and it was terrible. I though it was just a run of bad luck. Then after buying a fill station it came scratched and the guage leaked. I tried and I tried to contact them but with no luck. I left them a neutral feedback on Ebay and these mentally insufficient people left me a bad feedback based solely on my feedback. I'm so glad they are no longer in business, their products were very poor quality, their customer service sucked and their professional approach to being a business was pathetic. Unfortunately, like this Ebay seller, most buyers with a negative feedback are left by sellers that are "no longer a registered user". Doesn't really say much about Ebays professional approach either...
