    Things I liked:Nice and sturdy. Milled from solid steel.
    Things I would have changed:Very heavy - could be milled thinner and weigh half as much and still protect 90% as well.
    What others should know:Ordered two and one of the two was delivered very rusted internally - literally full of rust and rust flakes/powder. If I had not checked the item and just screwed it on my tank, The loose rust may have seriously damaged my tank valve. Pyramyd sent a replacement right away when informed, but there should be better QA and inspection before items are sent.

      Things I liked:Solid construction. Protects the expensive valve from dings, dirty, and more.
      Things I would have changed:This should come standard with second and third bottles.
      What others should know:I use it for transport, in the field, and at the range when I have a second bottle handy but don't want the valve getting dirty or risk being damaged. In long term storage I don't use this as I want normal airflow around the valve assembly.

      Things I liked:Appears to be a sturdy safety cap.
      Things I would have changed:I hate the price but I bought two. Safety first! Then, what the traffic will bear doesn't make for real happy customers. IMO this item should be included with the original purchase and maybe an option for second tanks as long as you have one installed on the spare while not mounted to the air rifle.
      What others should know:I have yet to hear of a air rifle AIR or CO2 tank blowing out the valve but I prefer not to take a chance with either 3,000 psi Air or 1,800 psi CO2. I bought two caps and use them anytime my tanks are not mounted to the air rifle or being filled. I place my bets on safety first. Only cats and some batteries have 9 lives and I've found some of them untimely dead.

      Things I liked:No better quality is possible. Would probably survive a .22 HV LR round hit without a dent.
      Things I would have changed:Is such quality needed for a protective cap? I'd say no.
      What others should know:It is the same machining as the caps used in the AF scuba fill units and AF fill adapters. The one end was just machined smooth to make a cap rather than providing a fill hole/ adapter. That may be why they can sell it for $14 as it is just a variation on an existing product. Otherwise, it would certainly be a $40 item.

      Things I liked:It offers good protection for the threads on the HP & CO2 tanks.
      Things I would have changed:Check units before shipping, as both items had surface rust on the exterior, that was easily removed, but should not have been present.
      What others should know:I have been pleased with all my purchases of Air Force items, good quality.
