RWS Pump

[Gerard c.]

While I am repairing my Stirrup pump-This is probably a stupid Question,But I am not sure- Could I connect pump to an old wheel barrow inner tube just for test purposes rather than keep connecting to my rifle ??

[junglie]

well for a start you'd need the correct connector as the thread size will be different,I would just conect it to the gun as the low pressures on a barrow tyre won't tell you whether the pump is working at high pressures.

Thanks Junglie,so it wont damage the rifle?

No I doubt it, but you may have to cock the bolt so you can get air in to start with if it's completly empty.On some pcps the hammer can hold the firing valve open if the guns empty, causing the air to just go straight out the barrel when using a hand pump.

No the rifle is full at the moment, Normally use about 3 mags and top up its an AA S200
