Air pump

Post by lamap »

Hi
would you consider this pump a good alternative to more expensive pumps?

I will be using a Morini 162. The club has a scuba diving tank as well as a compressor, but for home use this could be handy.

Thank you
Luis

Not sure where you are located. It does say they do not ship to USA. May not ship to your country. Seems too cheap to be any good...but who knows?

You are dealing with very high pressures, and a cheaply made pump will likely blow out its seals in short order. I wouldn't touch it unless you can at least get seal repair kits.

Hill pumps come up for sale used periodically, either on eBay or the Buy, Sell, Trade forum. I'd use your Club's tank until you can pick up one of those.

You can buy a SCUBA tank cheap off Craig'slist. Fill it at your club.

Good evening,
thank you all for your inputs.
I live in Portugal. I had a 8 years gap without shooting, and sold may materials when I quit, pumps included.
I had a gehmann pump that didnt last much, later bought an hill pump. Both were expensive, the last one more at about 200 euro if I recall, but much better quality.
I will keep an eye for any sale on these.

Best regards,
Luis

Thanks,
I need something more airplane friendly, the pump is the thing I remember that allows this.
