Les*1066 Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Not in its current condition I wouldn't. Did you buy it from (BSA?) in that condition, or from another source? Edited January 18, 2015 by Les*1066 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulpinehunter Posted January 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Privat chap. Not BSA they would not send out this sort of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 That's thing ain't fit for service! I wouldn't want to get that manky rust anywhere near my fill port. I wouldn't be surprised if it was so degraded it leaked anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) If I was desperate I would spin it in a drill and clean the probe up with a fine wire wool after removing the O rings-otherwise I would pop round the sellers house and pop it up his posterior.

TimeDrags Posted January 18, 2015 Report Share Posted January 18, 2015 Not a chance - dealing with over 1400 PSI I wouldnt use that at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbaz Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 I'd bin it and buy a new one as any specs of rust will slaughter the valve seal I had it with a Daystrate Huntsman mk1 using an Aluminium cylinder that it seems had oxide inside, Luckily the Huntsman was a very simple rifle and I was able to strip it and polish out the score in my lathe John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sha Bu Le Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 (edited) I would not use this to blow up balloons let alone fill a PCP Edited January 19, 2015 by Sha Bu Le Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secretagentmole Posted January 19, 2015 Report Share Posted January 19, 2015 Best Fittings sell fill probes, most gun shops have spare probes for sale. Just phone your local and ask! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
