I see these on a lot of older bikes. It looks like a faux gas tank; was a horn mounted in these or what?

Exactly. A battery operated horn was mounted in the tank, and there was a button (usually on the right hand side of the tank) you pushed to sound the horn.
 
I'm thinking of taking use my old paintball tank and now and get on my bike somewhere and then hooking up an air horn.
I've had too many assholes just fly right out in front of me when I have lights flashing solid lights red lights white lights all around my bike I am clear to see wearing bright colors helmets everything and they still try to kill me.
So I'm going to see if I can hook up that old paintball tank, Carpet Solitaire and see if it'll hold enough to operate an air horn. I think you'll have plenty of air to get me through my trip.

ANY THOUGHTS? PLEASEC
