bottle testing

[mattie]

somone please help
i tried the other day to get me bottle filled up at a paintball shop but when i brought it in the people told me its us and not uk tested and they couldnt fill it, is it possible to get it uk tested and not U.S and if yes where and how much roughly??

if its a dot bottle m8 you will not get it tested/filled in the uk ,the only way you can use it is to buy a dive tank and fill it yourself

 

[mattie]

damn strange tho i bought the bottle second hand in the uk...

 

[le-pig]

yep a lot of people "forget" to meantion you can't fill dot bottles in the uk
stick it in the classefides m8,some teams want them to use in the u.s

 

[mattie]

will do. Cheers for the help

even if you fill them at home, can you even play with the dot bottle at tournaments etc?? becuase i always thought you couldnt.

as long as you fill them yourself its ok,but a lot of tourney organisers wont be happy that your using a dot bottle,and when the test date runs out your fecked
mattie what bottle is it
