Looky here

Fill your own hpa tanks with a hand pump???!?!?!!!? How long would that take? And how do you get a hand pump to do 3000psi?

**Homeless Box** · December 7th, 03:00 PM

scam? or it just takes a really long time

**splatwithhonor3** · December 7th, 03:02 PM

I doubt its a scam, but man, that would take forever.

**MidwestKidz** · December 7th, 03:02 PM

if this is for real they should make one for 4500

idk it could be real... wow pretty cool

**imprez55** · December 7th, 03:43 PM

heh, think how long it takes to fill up a ~50 psi bike tire with a normal pump (not compressor). i am not sure what the 3 stage thing is, but it takes forever to fill up a 50 psi bike tire, imagine a 3000 psi tank. you would definatly be too tired to play, or too late to play if you tried doing that between games.

That is one gay idea

**Sham3d** · December 7th, 04:18 PM

WOH!

I just had an Idea!

What if you were to have a small pump, on each foot, and whenever you run, it pumps air into your tank??? Then you would never have to worry about air fills.

I tried googling around to see what I could find. But of course the minute you say "pump" all that comes up is pump guns.
I did find a tool by Nitro Duck called a Power Booster. It lets you use a regular compressor to fill 3000 and 4500psi tanks. I found one used for $1200, so no telling what it goes for new.

that could be a good idea but it isnt

Probably like the pump in a pellet gun.

**Dogpatch** · December 7th, 05:29 PM

Ok, more news on the pump.
A lot of people shooting air guns use scuba tanks to fill their cylinders. (like our tanks, but smaller I believe) When you fill a 3000psi paintball tank from a 3000psi scuba tank, you basically only get a full fill the first time you do it, after that you get less of a fill each time since all your doing is equalizing the pressure between the two tanks. So, these people use these pumps to top off their cylinders after not getting a full fill from the scuba tank.
So, the pump does put out 3000psi. The article I read called the pump "a nice aerobic workout", so I imagine trying to fill a 68ci tank or higher would be a bit of a stretch.

That is not meant for a paintball gun....it is a for an air rifle.

**CH4OS** · December 7th, 07:20 PM

someone should pick up on that. think about it. you dont have to run to your proshop everytime you just wanna test something out on your gun. and plus its free air. only if they found a way to increase the pressure per pump by like 40x

As in the competition style air rifles? How does that work basically? I have no expereince with air rifles.

**Mangobutter** · December 8th, 12:47 AM

well youd get a work out....

**CGras90** · December 8th, 06:00 AM

my cousin shooots competition, his guns all use little teeny compressed air tanks that fit in the stock

Master Shake043 · December 8th, 07:52 AM

that would take like 5 hours to fill a 47/30 tank with that

Yes... but it "could" work on a paintball tank. It would just take forever.
To be clear... this is not a viable option for filling your tanks. It was just an interesting find.
