3000psi hand-pump!?!

[ThePixelGuru]

I've fooled around with one of those in the past.

They do work however....it takes like 10 million pumps to fill a 47ci tank.

About how long does it take to fill one? Kinda curious how dedicated someone would have to be to fill their tanks off a hand pump.

Used one to fill an air rifle one time and took a good 10 mins of pumping which got, IIRC (it was some time ago) , good for around 2 dozen shots. It's was probably like a 4-500 cc tank.

My question is what the hell does one do with that!?
Is is just some target shooting thing, because that looks like some military assault rifle?

Among other things, they're use in applications where a pre-charged pneumatic system is desirable in an air-rifle. They can be used for prescision shooting applications, however as far as I was aware the biathalon guns were .22 rim-fire rifles. The most common use I've seen for the Airforce serries of rifles (along with a good number of other high-power air rifles made by Benjamin/Sherridan and GAMO to name a couple) is for dealing with small furry/feathered creatures which can be described as "pest" animals. The .22 cal are generally applied to longer range or larger animals.

well, i pumped this bad boy up to a whopping 30 psi last night with a bicycle hand pump




100 strokes

the first 40 stokes got me to 5 psi

I'm aware of that....the 'point' I was trying to make was they are very small caliber compared to a paintblal marker.


I would however be pretty suprised to to hear some one take a white tail with such a small cailber projectile moving at only 600fps , altho it may be possible.

My friends .25 air rifle clocks in around 1100-1200fps. I like hunting with the .223, but of coarse thar shoots much faster. Never the less it is still small. .22 hornet is the smallest centerfire rifle that can be used here in Wisconsin. I know one guy to accually use one and bagged a deer cleanly.

ebay is a wonderful place

the tank is a demiled firefighter airtank

last night i hooked my bike pump to a 4500 88 tank

2 pumps got me to 100 psi and that was all the pump would do

[MonsterMag]

So if an adapter was made to be connected to a fill nipple female, how many psi Would you get with a standard air pump?

[VFX_Fenix]

Standard Bike pumps only go to around 110psi, similarly with other sorts of manual pumps and certain power pumps that aren't intended for charging cylinders will only go to around 200psi-ish though I know there are some that'll go higher than 300psi.
