4500 PSI airgun compressor

Jonny:
Just had a glance at the site, the 1st stage would add considerable cost.
Secondly on two counts, its pumping dirty air in by using your compressor and most importantly theres no filters.
Filters at dive shops regularly have to change, usually every months and quite expensive.

I would also assume it takes an eternity to fill a small cylinder up. Some only rated at 200bar so would need a reg in line or some shut off, else bang.

One thing you will not want to pump in air in a room environment, there by law has to be a certain percentage of moisture after the fill.

I have seen many air rifles where the owners have used pumps with those moisture trapping ball bearings. Totally wet on inside and burn the filler and in extremes have known knock open valves to burn.

Thanks for the inputy guys. I'm only looking for around 800-900 PSI and I have another compressor. I'll be starting with the hand pump first.
