Is anyone else filling their gk1 to 5k psi with their 4500psi rated compressor I'm ready to order this gun but I have a gx cs3 compressor rated for 4500 will it fill the huben to 5k no problem? Thanks
I have no problem using equipment to the limit it’s designed and marketed at. Going over 500 psi will probably blow some seals, however the burst disc on compressor may operate first.
I can with the GX4, but choose not to. I just fill my big 98 cubic foot tank to 4500 psi and then fill the gun's with that. Doing it this helps keep the moisture down in the pcp's and the extra higher presssure doesn't give a really appreciable amount of extra or accurate shots.
The Huben hand pump is designed for 5k psi. Bad ass steampunk device. Very easy to operate and compact. Designed for righties and lefties. Would make an excellent blunt object, if needed or required. This thing is built like a brick sh!t house.
I've done it dozens and dozens of times without issue. You're only in the red for a few seconds. Granted outside of the first 'charge' I recharge with the 4500 psi tank I also bring with me.
