i dont know if this is a stupid question or not, but if they made some attachment for your bike pump(like the ones you use manually) that could be screwed onto your air(hpa) tank, would it be able to fill it up?? at least for like one shot? and if so, would the air it would be pumping be alright for your n2/HPA tank?



just a thought....

The air would be allright, but you who need a super-duper low pressure gun. Most cant fill over 200psi. Very, very few guns can operate at that low. I cant even name them off the top of my head.

As long as you are able to pump to 4500 psi which i know you cant.  Even if you do fill it up just a little bit it wouldnt fire a shot.

is as close as you can get to an air "pump." No way to do it off a bike pump.

Yeah, a bike pump seems almost impossible.

bike pumps probably wont go above 100 PSI seeing as the average tire needs between 60 and 30 PSI.

No, I am in the process of getting them to tell me how much they are. When I find out I will tell you...

Not enough psi.

Well a bike pump wouldn’t make much pressure for a marker, but, most air cannons use bike pumps to charge them. Read this web site.

my uncle has an air compressor, and i've tried filling a co2 tank with it before (when i was mad noob and wanted co2) but i think it would work with a hpa tank, yes?

Not a normal air compressor. Even the most expensive, power guzzling, Home Depot or hardware store bought compressors will only put out a MAXIMUM of 300 psi. And it's dirty air.

See my link above; the only place I've seen that sells compressors specifically for paintball tanks.
