My question is does everyone fill to 5k or only to 4500? Don you get same speed at 4500 than 5000? Can you fill to 5000 with the 4500 psi compressors? I'm ready to pull the trigger on a gk1. If you using bottles to refill assuming you will always be at 4500 psi

There's no need to fill to 5000 psi - the main reason to do that would be to increase your shot count a bit. Unless you need those extra shots, it's probably easier on the system to run it a bit below its maximum anyway.
I would assume that topping off increases the highest power you can get but I haven't tested that.

Anyone know the size of the Allen key used to adjust the power the one that came with the gun is super short.

Is that right I did 3 full rotations from 0 and im getting 848 fps with a 48 gr slug from 5k psi fill.. I still have another half rotation exactly before I feel the screw stop grabbing and free spinning...I would of thought I would of been faster or maybe pellets have more power?

That’s about the limit on the .25 GK1 when using compressed air. If you didn’t know, 76 ft. lbs. for a .25 compact air pistol was unheard of in the airgun world until the gk1 came along. Just a few years ago the highest power .25 pistol looked like something captain Jack sparrow would carry and it maxed out around 30 ft lbs for a few shots.

So i spoke with Gregor the maker of the gun you can get 85 fpe but have to back out the screw allll the way out until you feel is not grabbing and is free spinning and have to be at 350 bars to get that 25 acp power equivalent
