We don’t use co2, these tanks are 4500# compressed air, but thanks.

I dropped a couple of tanks off a Shark Side dive shop in Leesburg a few weeks go but haven't been able to get in touch with them since so...I'm not sure if they are open or what is going on with my tanks....but here is the link

I kinda like your idea of self-sufficiency!

I’ve been studying up on this and the cheap compressors won’t fill a medium size bottle. And they’re throw away, if they fail and they do. To get, if you can find, a good compressor you’re looking at $700-800. A good medium size bottle is $600. Not a cheap hobby. I might have to sell one of RF rifles. I hope not.

Or...if you get a compressor...it could be a way to make a few bucks filling tanks for other shooters?

Or, maybe someone will feel sorry for me and offer to fill mine. 😆 By the way do you shoot the Village matches?

Yeah, bench and offhand rifle.

Great, I’m only going to shoot bench. Oh, I just checked AOA for a compressor and out of the seven they carry they have none.

What matter with hand type tire pump and just fill the rifle air chamber up?

I guess a young guy could do that.

How much is decent compressor that will serve this purpose?

Personofinterest in post 8 said he paid $330.

That’s not terrible

I’ve read too many posts on forums that inexpensive compressors don’t hold up, also they won’t fill anything but a gun tank, no filler tanks. Maybe poi can give us a review?

The guns run at like 3000 psi. There are hand pumps that do it....but it's a lot of work.

Why not just use the air compressor to fill the PCP tank on the rifle? Why would need big compressed air bottle? Not like going to be shooting 200 plus round day?
