Maddog Heavy Duty Paintball Tank Remote Coil - Move Tank Weight Off

In this review the Maddog Heavy Duty Paintball Tank Remote Coil is judged on whether it delivers a simple, reliable way to shift tank weight from the marker to a harness or vest. The core reason to buy is its practical design: a 30' coiled hose that stretches to over 5 ft and an upgraded quick disconnect with slidecheck make field swaps and degassing fast and convenient. For players who want increased mobility and a lighter marker, this remote coil is a straightforward accessory that changes how a gun feels in woodsball or scenario play.

Key Features

• Lighten your load: Moving the tank off the marker transfers bulk weight into a harness or vest for easier handling and potentially better accuracy.
• Upgraded quick disconnect: The Quick Disconnect with slidecheck lets a player shut off or degas the line and remove the hose without depressurizing the whole system.
• Coiled, stretchable hose: The 30' coiled hose expands to over 5 ft to allow unrestricted movement and to adapt to different body positions during play.
• Wide tank compatibility: Works with CO2 tanks, 3000 psi and 4500 psi HPA systems and a long list of common sizes so it fits most paintball setups.
• Simple installation: The unit installs quickly on standard fittings, making it useful for players who need a fast field-ready solution.

Who It's For

The Maddog remote coil is aimed at woodsball and scenario players, team players wearing harnesses, and anyone who prefers a lighter marker for handling and accuracy. It is especially useful for players who change tanks on the field and want a quick disconnect to swap bottles without fuss.
