HPA tank placement and Ghillie Suits

Okay guys, I have a dilemma. I use an AW338 converted to external air. So I have a HPA bottle hanging off my hose and nowhere to put it. When I play fast-paced game, I wear a normal vest and have it in a canteen pouch. But with a two-piece ghillie, it is hard to place. Because if I put it on my belt in the back it sticks out, especially with a black hose dangling off. So, where do you suggest to put it?

Fatboy Versipack would be my solution for that scenario. If you don't prefer those as an option, I'd attach a large utility pouch on the side on my belt and place it inside there.
Country Comm's hydrant pouch will fit a 48ci 3000PSI and Palmer stab very nicely. I use mine on a Condor H-harness and battle belt. Adjust your shoulder straps high or low it feels very comfortable plus you'll have plenty of MOLLE for other things.

As this is your first post, please go to the Intro section, on the beginners page, and make a intro please.
To answer your question, try using a plamers co2 rig, I have scene people fit them in to the stock of a m24, but because you have a l96 platform, that could be problematic.
Hidden this is not my first post...
The hydrant looks perfect. The fatboy looks to bulky.

Thanks guys!

Lol, sorry I was using my phone and I didn't see your post to well sorry. Also the smallest tank in paintball is the Ninja 13/3000 HPA Tank(http://www.pennpaintball.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=Ninja+13/3000+HPA), this thing is tiny, also may work well with your needs.
No big deal, I read more than I write.

That will probably my new tank. Its tiny yet cheap. Plus a 125 shots on a paintball marker will be plenty for a sniper rifle.
I've used one of those tanks on my old pump action paintball marker(still was beating down those cocky speedballers shooting 30bps with there Dye NT's, hell of a gun it was.. anyways...) and it lasted me a minimum of 300 shots. On an airsoft gas sniper rifle it should last you exponentially more; I would guess at least 600(my 50cu x 4500psi tank lasts me over 2000 shots) Anyways, they are great little tanks especially for the price!
