I like the boot thingie! I’ll have to check the dive shop and see if I can come up with that combo. 😉
I’m jsut using the hand tight scuba adapter to AF fill adapter for mine.

Do you think that the hose is a must or just get what i am talking abut . i used the air force set up with a rented scuba bottle and i liked that just fine before.
I will check out a boot like you said at the scuba shop thank you.
A hose makes filling a little easier, but you lose a hose worth of air with each fill. Screw direct to the bottle and you lose hardly any….
Good point Pab! I need my hose as it is set up as a quick connect for multiple rifles. I take mine to the range with me, so the boots work well to keep it upright and tucked under the bench.

hell yeah Mam that’s cool , think i will get a boot and rig a holding station for the bottle, I was sitting here looking at the bottle and thinking of putting a ring of rubber around the top edge or something so if it fell it would not be a problem, it’s to pretty to get scratched up.
The bottle seems awful small to hold 88 cubic Ft. ,smaller than a 80cu. ft. scuba tank. besides i don’t need anything else to clean up it’s already cluttered up enough around here .LOL

And here is my half azzed bottle stand….Ugly but sturdy….You really
don’t want to knock one of these over…Even though it might not cause
an accident, watching it fall could cost you an hour to clean your pants
and your self. 😳
Ok cool , 80 what do you recommend for the fill adapter, i have the air force to scuba set up. so i was thinking of just getting the scba to scuba k valve adapter.

I had to buy a rubber scuba boot and a plastic scuba boot (I believe they were 12.00 each from a local scuba shop) in order to stand it up. The rubber boot acted like a shim in order for the bottle to fit tightly inside the plastic boot. It stands up nicely now.
