    HW100 Filling advice

    hey guys helped me out alot recentley
    need your expertise once again!
    so today i went to uttings to buy this
    http://www.bestfittings.co.uk/shopexd.asp?id=194
    after i explained to the guy , i have a friend who has a pump for his airarms ( not seeing him till tomorrow) and the guy at uttings said this should do the job,

    my hw100 has dropped into the yellow and i dont want to use it until i get it back to 200...

    i have about a extra £100 to play with ( is it worth upgrading quick fit) or buying the necessary adapters,

    and will that adapter fit any pcp pump?

    also i dont have any other attachments apart from the rifle....

    That fitting is for screwing into a din diving bottle , i dont think it will fit any pump i have ever seen.
    The quickfill conversion would make life a lot easier for you!

    so another question is if i do pay out and get a quick fill kit (best fittings)
    would i get the adapter to fit my friends pump or is it worth getting my own
    if so any preference on model

    It's worth getting the inter change adapters, click on and off. Much easier.

    Best-fittings or Michael Tawn do the quick coupler. I think Tawn's is a couple of Pounds cheaper, have a look at the postage and see which is cheapest all in.

    Edit: You will still need the correct adaptor to connect the end of the pump's hose (1/8BSP female) to your detachable rifle cylinder.

    Hi,
    I think you want a best fittings starter kit, this has the quick release fitting for the pump hose, and also the other 1/2 of the quick release that screws on to your filling conector you will need 2 of these 1 for you & 1 for your mate & you just plug in which ever one you want, I think the starter kit has all the bits you should need assuming you have the rifle fill probe.

    Looks like you would need two items to fill your rifle's cylinder then (click). £37 for the two, ouch. How much is a quick fill conversion/exchange?

    I'm not a HW100 owner so check the above.

    From your posts it looks like you have the brass adaptor as seen in the link I gave. To use it with a normal 1/8" connector you also need the silver adaptor (£22), in the link. The two fit together and then connect to the pump/bottle in the normal way.
