Ninja Paintball Tank Review
Tank - 13-3000
Markers - Azodin KP, PMI Tracer.
Period of use - Over the course of CPX Living Legends so far.
I got to pick up a brand new Ninja Paintball tank at Living Legends from Ray at Ninja Paintball, and I said I was going to put up a little review on the tank. So here goes. I was able to use the tank on both the Azodin Khaos Pump, and my custom Tactical PMI Tracer, My first impression of this tank is simply, Wow. Kudos goes out to ninja for making a tank that is built for me, Not to knock any other tanks in this range, but I have tried other 13-3's, and None were up to this standard. Now lets do some Pros and Cons.
Pros:
Customer Service: Most Important thing in my opinion when dealing with paintball gear is, "Does it have a good customer service backing?" I met Ray through TechPB and he always seemed like a cool guy, I finally got the chance to catch up to him in person at CPX over the past weekend, And the guy is definitely cool in person as well. Sadly I didn't get to take him up on his offer of a quick tour of the Ninja Paintball factory while I was in Chicago. But back to Customer Service. I have heard and seen many good things from Ninja in the ways of customer service, They are players themselves, so they know what its like not to have a working tank. So they will do pretty much anything to get it back and fixed in your hands as quickly as possible so you can get out to the field playing again with confidence in your gear.
Durability: Another thing that I noticed in my weekend of playing with the Ninja Tank (As well as rocking an awesome Ninja Headband). Ninja makes Durable Products! I put my gear through hell and highwater (Sometimes quite literally... Though I do not reccomend it) and the tank withstood it all. Dropped, Heavily Impacting my jaw (Think that hurt me more then the tank, thankfully), Superman Diving (Numerous times) Getting thrown into the net because I needed to use both hands on the camera for a second to get a good picture... Everything! Let me make this clear (again..) Durability Tests, Are based off me, If it can withstand me.. It can withstand whatever you can dish out. So play hard, and play with confidence.
Cost: In these times of economic uncertainty it is good to see an industry leader like Ninja come out with a line of High Quality, and Very reasonably priced tanks. In the market, Tanks of these quality sell for 200$ or more, So save your money, And check out the Ninja Tanks that are priced mostly in the 150$ range. High Quality, Great Value, Way to go Ninja.
Cons:
There cheap? I truthfully haven't found any cons with these tanks, When I do, You all will be the first to know!
Thats all for now, Play Safe, Play Hard.
