I got one for my fire station.

I have a paintball tank which is a 72 ci 3000psi tank and a fill station that goes on a YOKE valve. .


I'd double check that 72cf tank to make sure it's not a 2250psi.
It should be stamped on the neck. Might be 2400psi also.

Most of the 72cf tanks were not 3000psi but the lower 2250psi. Especially if it's steel. (use magnet to test if steel or aluminum).

I just mention this because you don't want to overfill an old steel 72 if it's 2250psi.

It is a steel tank and it is 72ci. Heres the link to the one I have http://specialopspaintball.com/shop/product_detail.asp?SKU=261+0063&CAT=111202

Also, that adapter was a bit out of my price range... I was thinkg bout buyin this off ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/SCUBA-BRAND-NEW-SCUBAPRO-MK-20-DIN-TO-YOKE-ADAPTER_W0QQitemZ300082061786QQihZ020QQcategoryZ16056QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem and then I would need something from DIN to SCBA right?

Ok... you said 72ci earlier. I thought the "ci" was an error perhaps and you had an "old steel 72cf" tank that is a diving tank that you might have been using to re-fill a smaller paintball tank with. Those "old 72's" are rated for a a lower pressure.

Your link above is indeed a 72 cubic-inch paintball tank, which is rated to 3000psi. So you should perfectly OK.

(I guess I just defaulted to it being a SCUBA steel 72 since this is a scuba board and not so much a paintball board. But it's still a good thing to check).

That's for convertiing a scubapro MK20 1st stage regulator. Its not a fill adapter, although with the right fittings, it could be I guess.
