    Anyone travel long distances w/ a CO2 Tank?

    So I have googled a few responses, but I thought I should probably put it up to the good folks of HBT first. So I'll be moving soon, and the movers would not pack up and move my full 25LB CO2 Tank. I'm trying to decide if I should just throw it in the car and take my chances? I'll be...
