Charging bottle questions

[Kingplinker]

Hi all

Info needed regarding filling pistol cylinders using a divers bottle .

I do not have a clue about divers bottles , tests and all that so would appreciate a little help . Do they have to be tested , what sort of price do they go for 2nd hand ?

cheers

If the bottle has an airgun valve with integrated gauge so it can't be used underwater then the test is every five years from the date of manufacture that's stamped on the bottle. If it has a vavle that can be used underwater with the gauge and hose on a DIN or A-clamp fitting then the test is every 2.5 years.

Browse the sales section to get an idea of secondhand prices.

Around £100 SH or £150 new for a 3 litre 300bar with gauge. PS. the MG1 does around 200 shots per fill/per cylinder

When filling, make sure you follow the instructions, otherwise things can get "exciting" ...
