Hill Mk4 or FX 4 Stage

[mark2cars]

I am going to purchase a pump. This will be my sole air supply for the next few months. Due to costs I am no longer going to be able to afford my nitro tank. The sale of my regulated nitro gauge setup will provide most of the cost of a nice pump. Now I would appreciate input from any of y'all that are using or have used either of the above pumps. Also advice on any additional filtering methods. Thanks in advance !!

I have both and routinely rotate between the two, and agree with the others--they are both great. Pumping seems to be easier, but you will need more strokes when you back out the thumb screw on top of the FX handle. If you lock it down, it's the same as the Hill: less strokes but more effort. No problems for me on either.

Look around, brand new Hill pump MKIV for $199.00

Do not pay the $287.00 old price.

Thanks all of you ! I will be looking for a Mk4. I will let you know how it works out.

Consider the BULL pump from China, it is vastly superior to the Hill. I consider the Hill to be a poor quality pump.
