Hiya, after doing several weeks of research into Pneumatic systems for feathers, already worked on Pneumatic systems for heavy many many years ago, I set to and bought a New Legand 12oz CO2 bottle with on\off valve at £30 inc postage from Germany.

About an hour after hitting submit payment, I started to read about some other tanks I was looking to get which were 9oz bottles with the DOT certification. This is where I started to read about DOT not being CE UK approved but an American standard. So this brings me back to my new shined tank making its way from Germany.

Would the German tank be DOT classified and therefore I wouldn't be able to use it? I believe DOT is european too, and therefore the German bottle could be DOT...

Have I just bought something I wouldn't be able to use in an actual event, anyone else know if these German bottles would be DOT?

Will email seller to ask.

Thanks for your advice on past purchasing...

Additional, if I bought the DOT 9oz bottle (£2.50) could I use them as a buffer at a later date? Or would they still need to be CE?
