At the field normally unless you or a buddy are crazy enough to have a fill station setup *laugh*

TNT, Cage, Victoria Paintball, Midway, etc... they all do HPA fills at the field. If you're looking for a shop that will fill them mid-week I've heard rumors that Harresons Military Surplus in Victoria will fill HPA tanks off a set of scubas (so you can get up to 3k there) but I haven't confirmed that personally.

12bux field fee at the cage on weekends. fill to 4500 psi. - all day. fill up b4 you leave too - to practice your snap shooting etc.

might add paint is cheeper at the cage than anywhere else on the island 3-4 paint choices.

We do fill CO2 and HPA at Harresons, as well as sell guns and accessories, oh did I mention we also do repairs now. We recently expanded to include Paintball to our mainline Camo, Surplus and Military inventory. Cheapest fills around - not 10 bucks as some here described: 9-16oz - $3.99, 20-24oz - $5.99

Harreson himself has a basic knowledge of paintball, but you'll need to cut him a break - he's almost 70 and bankrolls a real store that caters to Paintballers, Airsoft types, real Military and Police personnel. Having helped him establish the paintball side of the business, we aim to continue growing in the marketplace.

How much for an HPA fill. 68 cubic inch tank? Nice to have an Island shop for paintball needs.

yeah harrel is pretty hard core. i believe he was a sergeant-major in the army. retired. got surplus through his contacts. went from little to compact to mid in the last 20 years. carved a little-known nitch-ski on the island. his little piece of retirement heaven tucked away in that tiny hamlet know as victoria.

i boght a mint special service smock off him 10 years back for like, $300. god knows what it's worth now.
