Any pcp owners in here?

[ThatBuckeyeGuy]

So I've always wanted to dip my feet into this hobby but put it off for quite some time. Today I did a little horse trading and picked this guy up along with two mags and a new hand pump. I've already learned I'll be buying an electric compressor for it and saving the handpump for an emergency back up. Handpumping 4500 PSI isn't something I want to do on the regular lol. I know this isn't top of the line but for starting off and to knock off some unwelcomed yard critters quietly I think it will do just fine. I shot a few rounds out back messing around and I can't wait to put it on paper. Anyone on here have any Input on a preferred brand of compressor? I have the pellets picked out after watching several videos on which ones this rifle likes best. Thanks in advance for any advice

I was expecting a whole different topic opening this up. As you were…..

But on a side note, my brother is into it as well. He’s got a few. Can’t remember the make and model but I’ve shot them a couple times. Accurate as hell and pretty lethal within range…. I’ll ask him about a compressor recommendation.

Well I was going to title it "any pcp users in here?" But didn't want it derailed instantly

I bought these two Hatsans a few yrs back. 22cal & 25cal. Great shooters. I don't get much use outta them just the same. Haven't gone beyond the hand pump.

Hmm I like both but wondering if the first one would have the longest life being oiled and assuming a little quieter

What PSI is max on the tanks? How dreadful is handpumping until full ?

That’s why he got that one.

I'm thinking they're both 2900 pci. Hand pump is doable, but it's not fun.
