    Yes, done an old S400 a while ago, got all the bits from Best fittings, I think it was worth doing. Rog

    I had this done to my old AA S400 as my local club's fill bottle connectors didn't give a good seal, unlike my own bottle. Cost was about £100 through my local RFD and filling is now quick and easy. Go for it.

    Yes, and easy to do. Bought my parts from Julian Bond. No need to go to RFD if you are an average DIYer but make sure cylinder is empty.

    Yes, the Foster version is used on some Brococks, some Daystates, not sure about FX but my Verminator has a Foster nipple.

    Same here. Got all the bits from Julian Bond Airguns. Not just the quick fill, you need to change the end cap that the charge fitting screws into and a couple of seals.
    Very simple to change too.
