I'm making a homemade sidearm and i need to ask a question.
Does anyone here know of a lightweight container that can withstand 50-70 psi?

A small piece of PVC pipe might be the best thing for the task. Something like 1 1/2 inch or 2 inch pipe should be sufficient.
If you want something different, try looking at McMaster-Carr for small pressurized vessels. You never know what you could find. I've been and continue to be amazed by the variety of stuff they have there. Some of my ideas come directly from finding a cool part.

Thanks for the info.
PS: I'm trying to see how few parts I can use to make this and so far I'm up to 9 and the design is finished.
PPS:Thats only because it's powered by CO2

A solar shower only has pressure from the weight of the water. It can not be pressurized, so it wouldn't work here. They're find for backpacks, but not for pressurized containers.
