Re: Looking to get back into air pistol

The holes in the carbon fiber barrel shroud do not line up with the holes in the barrel. Morini has recalled the electronic trigger circuit board because it drains the battery in just a couple of hundred shoots, the trigger guard is made out of cheap plastic...would you like me to go on?

Re: Looking to get back into air pistol

I own a Steyr Evo, Pardini K12, Morini CM200, Walther LP500, and more.
For under $2K I would rate the Walther LP500 first. Further back the Pardini K12, next Steyr. The Morini CM200 is poorly designed and made. The earlier models were MUCH better designed/made.

Re: AIR FILL STATION PLANS

I looked at a picture and it says Airetex

One of these. http://www.airetex.com/a45.html May not be that exact model.

Re: Walther LP500 source

The problem with Krale is if you do need service , is the cost and time to ship internationally. Joe offers full support right here in the States.

Re: Review of Walther LP500 Expert

Sorry,
I have never used the Walther LP400 so I cannot offer opinion between the two.

Re: How are you filling your cylinders?

Seems high. I would lift a 100cf tank and make sure you are OK with the weight. When I dove I had dual 50s and dual 80s and the dual 80s, while giving me more bottom time, were a pain to carry.

In most cases dive shops can fill your tank while you wait.

Re: How are you filling your cylinders?

Steel scuba tanks not able to hold 3000psi ? I must have an unusual one, mine is a Faber scuba steel 230 bar (3335 psi) tank. They also make steel 300 bar tanks. The 230 bar tank has the same fittings as a 200 bar one. The fitting that comes with the pistol attaches directly to the tank. I can chec...

Re: How are you filling your cylinders?

Price-wise it does not make sense to buy a compressor. Also dive shops remove the moisture from the air so your tanks have very little moisture. That said, I bought my own compressor (got mine from Pyramid). Spent about what yours sells for. If I could do it over I would have bought two tanks. One b...
