Hey, what do you guys think the best PCP pump would be for filling 48ci tanks from 1000 to 3000 psi? So far i have decided on the Webley TRIpump, is that better than others (Airforce, Hill, etc)
Where's my Chuck key?

Otherwise...check reviews...but buy something you can get parts for...you WILL be needing to service the thing. The Hill pumps have good customer support from what I hear, and not only are parts available but the company encourages owners to rebuild their pumps.

Everything I've heard about New Zealand is true :roll:

Gippeto is right, decanting from a cylinder is best - but if you must have a pump, the best one is... one that someone else is working for you ;)

Look at this review, the Webley seems to win hands down: http://images.esellerpro.com/2269/I/1/pumpreview.pdf

Tennis ball barrel for the hybrid anyone?
http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... =499262691

It's a touch too large in diameter and it'll be short at only 1m long but that's the beauty about 1.5" porting piston hybrids; performance is always good :D

Just need to find something that has threads and could be welded to it.

Yeah... they're all like "whoah, everything has to be so precise, zero margin for error, it *is* rocket science you know!" but all I heard was "We're pretty mediocre engineers, the success of our fragile product hangs by a single thread."

I wouldn't fund them.
Well, they made it. Brilliant job :D

This was made by a pipe fitter with to much free time. Coud this be classed as a "Sentry Gun"?
