biketestace Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 Im not convinced that cheap equals good, i have been reading about the new one from Hills but at £700, that is a lot of £5 refills for my 12ltr bottle from my local shop ?

oldypigeonpopper Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 (edited) hello, i am waiting for some New Warriors to be in stock with a Ebay seller shipped in UK if my cylinders do not pass another test, you can get some good chinese pumps for about £35, why not put a wanted ad on the UK air gun forum as well Edited April 11, 2020 by oldypigeonpopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggy74 Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 hills are doing a spartan pump for £80 (manual obviously) great if you have a gauge on your cylinder, takes 30 pumps to get my hw100 from low pressure to full. i can see the maintenance on an electric compressor being a pain in the butt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The compressors have built in safety. The pressure is high the volume small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pressure is high the volume small. There are a couple of critical parts to dealing with air under that kind of pressure and I've seen some nasty situations following a moments lapse of concentration.. . . far easier to go get a bottle filled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 The same applies with filling the gun from the cylinder. The compressor is no different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
