    First Strike Half Pint?...

    So I pre-ordered one of these half pint thingys..... has anyone gotten theirs yet or heard of any updates? I know COVID has interrupted a lot of things but I would have thought they'd at least give us a new release date. Or is there a problem they discovered with the tank itself.... let the rumors begin!

        Never make blanket statements.
        And never tolerate intolerance.

      Any reason in particular?

      I'll admit I usually don't for items from untrustworthy sellers or dreamers, but from big reputable companies, especially for items that may not see a second run - why not? How many cool paintball items are out there that were made for a limited time and are in limited supply that were never made again? I have 0 concerns about getting my money back from ANS gear if needed.

      For this tank it seemed the perfect use for a pre-order to me. I don't have the keep up on when this thing will release. I'll get one when it is done, and shouldn't have to deal with it selling out before I get a chance to buy one.

      🤷‍♂️

        They used to charge a restocking fee for canceled pre-orders. Don't know if they still do or not.

        Though that tank looks sweet as heck.... I'm tempted to pre-order one.

        Yeah, I've always wanted a small 4500 tank - wish someone would make a 30-35ci.

        Nothing yet. My local pro shop has a bunch on order they haven’t heard anything on them last week when I asked. They sold out of CF tanks and are having a hell of a time getting more from what I understand. I think tanks in general are back ordered a bit due to what I assume is a disruption in production due to Covid.

          ANS page now says available mid February. Starting to worry I'm gonna be getting my money back instead of a new tank.

            Spoke with my rep over at Valken today about it. Very, very limited number come Jan, with the stock fill of them coming in Feb. Covid has really wrecked the timeframes on these.
