30-6 Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 I am going to buy a Hills mk5 pump as my dive bottle seems to keep needing a test before I need a re-fill, as I don't use the air rifles often enough. Does the Hill pump come with the correct fittings to use with an Air Arms connector ?, one of the original type where you pull back the spring loaded front to connect male and female.

Zeitgeist Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 I think it should be supplied with a 1/8 BSP connector, but best check with the fit of your gun. It would also pay to purchase the Dry-Pac kit to remove any moisture going into your gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
243deer Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 I have found best-fittings.co.uk to be very helpful when it comes to sorting out high pressure air connectors - worth giving them a ring if you get stuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldypigeonpopper Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 Hello, just use you old type AA fill adapter,it should just screw on hose, the MK 5 has good reviews, but then many use the £40 ones off eBay, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 Didn't one of the review channels test the new mk5 - afaik, it makes about 10% difference pumping wise but costs 4 times the price of an ebay cheapy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrastu Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 My mate uses a hills i like the fx pumps . Not much difference between them . Cost ,performance etc .these are what I recommend - wouldn't buy a cheap ebay one personally .but hey each to their own as they say .

bruno22rf Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 It's a couple of tubes with a handful of O rings thrown in for good measure - not an artificial heart, after you pay the extra for the Hills take a look at the foot plate......is that made in china I can see?
