I’ll have to take a BAR reading off the pump and then have the tank filled else where to determine what the actual BAR level is.

Just looking to understand the basics.

A bit costly and time consuming to buy 3 to 4 different brands and styles to discover which one out performs the other.

Any input would be appreciated. 🙂

I don’t need 2 of them but the price is hard to turn down.

Is $175.00 shipped fair enough?

This is JUST for the Tank.
It’s a 44cf, 4500psi rating. Good til 2016.

I’m still a bit new at this, so if my asking price is too high. Just say so.
Thanks

Fired my 25 cal today in fact, without the Shroud and it’s comparable to a 22 cal. piston.
Shroud installed….Tink, Tink, Tink. All you really hear is the Hammer hitting the Top Hat.

Do I,
A) Remove the Tank intact from the gun, install the adapter, connect to the hand pump and begin cardiac arrest?
B) Remove the tank from the gun, remove the top hat and valve stem and THEN begin cardiac arrest using the hand pump?

I contacted Airforce, and they state to simply attached the adapter onto the Bottle, Tighten the bleed screw on the hand pump and pump away to 3000psi, then loosen the bleed screw and remove the tank.
Now, either I have a defective pump or I’m doing something wrong because I don’t see any change on the pressure gage…Read more

Just hate getting burned on a Rifle that 3 years ago was far less in cost.
Still…Looking forward to it’s arrival.
Most of my shooting is well within 50 yards.

Any tips on a GOOD scope?
