any airgun fans here ?

Air Venturi is the one we got - we have two water filters for it.

I fill my bottle in scuba centre, no worries about air quality

There is only one scuba shop around here and it's a 24 mile drive to & from. But they can only fill my tank up to 3500 psi and so I was only able to get about 3 fills from it.

So I then went to a local fire station and was able to get the tank filled to 4500 psi and that made a big difference.

So you need bigger capacity tank.

A bigger capacity tank won't do any good, it's already a 5000 psi max tank. It's like I said, the scuba shop can only fill to a max of 3500 psi. My tank is similar to the ones that the firemen use on there backs for air - they are filled at 4500 psi.

This compressor will also fill the many paint ball tanks that are around the area, we will charge for each tank that is filled to offset the price.

There are 5 of us that went in on the compressor, so that's only $280 each.

I have two scuba tanks and a Hill hand pump. I cascade the tanks and top off with the pump.

 

[DXman]

The Hill pump is a good one, I sold mine to the guy that bought my Benjamin Marauder.

 

[TIN_CAN]

Well was playing around with the airsaber and its pretty cool, is kinda noisy but its all good, I opted for a hand pump...let me say it is a work out for sure.I am still waiting on 24 extra arrows I ordered. Was plinking in the back yard last weekend with some other airguns, wife gets a kick out of it.

I'll stick to my US Carbine .30 M1, i can make 1000 reloads for 150 Euro's including primers, Vihtavuori N110 powder and copper clad bullets.
Though our gun club has an active young members shooting section and our own compressor to fill up the pistols/rifles/bottles.
I can see the benefits though, the larger "air" rifles pack a punch now.
Nothing compared to our old Weinrauch HW 50 or HW 80 in .22.
But tnen i'm just an old gun nut here, i need the smell of burned gun powder and a nice kick in the shoulder or hand with an Desert Eagle.

i have a RWS Diana 34 and a very highly modified crosman 13xx pumper . great plinkers/shooters and they have both put meat on tables for decades . cheap/quiet ammo also . any other fans here ?

id sell several rws diana rifles,i got em for my daughter who shot lots daily till she discovered boys.
3-34's,a 460,a 54 the slide model n couple german built beemans.all are decent to excellent condition.
460 n 54 were expensive when new

I just got a Benjamin Marauder recently. Just in time for squirrel season!

 

[DXman]

The Marauder is a straight shooter for sure. Just make sure to keep the air dry, moisture will really cause problems inside. Mine shot the Benjamin pellets really good out to 60 yds and also the JBS Kings were very accurate.

Tin_Can,
Have you tired looking into getting some arrows from a archery shop? The shops around here can make any size you want.
