Actually there are pumps, similar to bike pumps, which go up to 3000psi. There used to fill pre-charge pneumatic airguns.

There expensive and work like bike pumps Google “ pyramid air” click on accessories or something like that.. oh find the link on the right side of the page for “pre-charge pneumatic” click on one of the guns and down close to the bottom will be accessories click it you should be able to find it

okay i don't know if this is relevant i made a vortex gun and i was playing airsoft with it three days ago, what i did was take a five gallon tank tape it into an old back pack made a short are hose. i was running it at 60psi (regulated from 110psi) worked pretty well other than the fact that no one would dare get close to me cause they knew what the fire rate was and the gun is useless at long range (working on an airsoft sniper for that)
be sure to check out my <a href="http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/ak-styl ... 9.html">AK Styled Vortex Gun</a> and my <a href="http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/at-4-t9627.html">AT-4 Rocket</a>

upcoming projects... finalized clip fed BBMG and ball point pen sniper

I have never seen a metal chamber for a pneumatic spudgun, only PVC. Is there a reason for this?

Ok dude, last one

This is another high quality gun. Next time you haven't "seen" something go to the top of this or any page and click cannons. If you can think it, it's probably on here, you just gotta look.
