I had that same compressor, and I must say it was quite loud, even for an oil free compressor. :D

It is kind of slow and does have a small tank, but it will work for short bursts from a bbmg.

Probably. You could always make an expansion chamber.

You could always buy a larger 5 or 10 gallon tank to run your bbmg off of if you find that 1 gallon isn't enough.
