Swapping tanks

Hi everyone,

I'm considering trying to swap my tank on here. I've got a Dye Throttle from 2006 (I think). Hydro'd last month so loads of test, but it's a little large as it is a 68/4500. I'm only 5'9" or so and I found it a little bulky last time I played, so was thinking of going for something smaller.

Would it be reasonable for me to swap it for something like a Guerilla Air 45/4500 with a Myth 2?

Thanks.

i started with a DYE throttle 68/4500 then swapped to a GA 68/4500 then moved to a GA 45/4500.

do i have any regrets? hell no.

i cant shoot for sh*t so i've been told my greatest asset is my speed to get from point A to point B to strategically place myself in an optimal position to lane an opposing player. Owning a GA 48/4500 certainly helps in keeping me light on my feet.

the only downside is you'll need to keep an eye on the gauge and recharge frequently at airstations. Can only get off around 900-1000 shots before my marker starts sputtering.

Cheers - I'm not that worried about running out of air, I usually only shoot about 300 paintballs in a game.

Am I right in thinking that a straight swap for a 45/4500 GA with a Myth 1/2 regulator would be fair then for both people?

if both are happy with the deal, then yes
