If you want the full benefits, then you will have to consider HPA. $170 for the regulator+hose, and $190 for the HPA tank. Go to a paintball field for airfill or lug a scuba tank to the airsoft field. You now have to consider the total package of $760.
ummmm i think this has been mentioned before, but i dont think you'll need an extra regulator. The gun should be able to handle the <800psi from the tank like any tippmann paintball marker does.

And if you're paying a full $190 for an HPA tank, you're not doing it right. At MOST, you might be paying ~$140. But a quick search and you'll easily find 68/45s going for $115.

Air set ups are inherently expensive, but they're not as expensive as you make em out to be.
