With the nature of automatic fire, you burn through air tanks at a pretty rapid rate, so you either need to keep multiple or have immediate access to an air fill station.
At NF5, we were filling the C9's tank every time we came back in from fighting.
In comparison, my M16 on P* JACK got through about half of NF5 before I needed to fill the tank.
That said, the C9 also went through more BBs than the rest of our entire Section combined. She was dialled right to the games max FPS/Joule limit of 1.5J, as well as right on their 35RPS limit.

The way I see it the player could carry a few box mags, each with a full HPA tank. But you're right, LMGs do use a lot of air and make it impractical. Although, I guess it could probably be doable in a strictly real capacity setting with box mags of 150 to 200 rounds.
