I recently ran across a CZ S200 at an auction and came home with it. It is the model with adjustable comb and butt plate. This is my first PCP and I need a bit of guidance. It came charged, so I know it holds air, but I have no clue what fitting I will need to recharge from either a tank or pump. The attached photos show the end of the air tank (removable if I am not mistaken) with the fitting under its black cap. I am hoping someone can give me some info as to what I have, what reciprocal fitting I will need to buy for the hose end of the air source etc.

Again, I am absolutely green to PCP’s so any and all comments are appreciated.

Bill

I have no recharging equipment at present. I thought I would start with identifying what connection or fitting I have , and take it from there, whether that be a HPA pump or a tank. In looking at images on google and looking at videos I don’t see the fitting that is on the end of my air gun, so wanted to run past the air gun nation group for input as I am truly green on this aspect of airgunning.

Thanks for the reply

Great guns. I have more than 1.

Fill pressure 190 bar. Easy to do with a hand pump. Good for bout 30-40 shots in .22

Did you get it in .22 or .177?

That gun gonna be a whole lot of fun in .177. I bet it’s a laser.

Straight shooters, an airgun store on the web, is retiring - he has .177 pellets for 25%off limited stock — if he has something that works for you it’s a chance to save some $.


I’m in Jersey, probably no far from you. If the air cylinder needs a reseal, I have the tool to take it apart. We can work something out if you need to use it.

Also check huma air. look under air arms s200 - they have add on regulators and a fitting to swap to a foster fill if you desire.

These DO NOT fill to over 200 bar... IMPERATIVE !!
Mine was best topped up to about 2300 psi ... around 160 bar as a 22 at 14 ft lb. It will shoot slower and slower the more you go above the optimum fill pressure. They are wonderful little rifles with great triggers. The shot count highly depends on the power output. It was designed to be 12 ft lb or less but can comfortably hit 14, maybe 15 ft lb. Some were set up as 10 M rifles so are 6 ft lb and are phenomenal there.
Shambozzie's connector advice is spot on.
Congratulations on your rifle purchase!

Not sure the "dislike" was necessary bud. My comment simply meant PCPs require pumps that are capable of filling that high, not that the gun actually gets filled that high. Anyone with even basic reading comprehension skills would have figured that out.

The comment was made because its a common mistake made by new PCP owners. I can't can't how many times I've seen "Will my Craftsman compressor work?" posts online.

Thank you all for the great input, and offer of assistance. I cannot wait to get up and running and start findingthe right pellet and fill pressure. I did know that these rifles had a reputation for accuracy, so great to see the related comments.

I have to ask though. In the string above Shambozzie and Heavyopp both recommended fittings. I am asking because I am learning….are these the same connection but different manufacturers? The PA link is less expensive but is marketed as an (older)AA fitting whereas the Amazon link is for a hydraulic type connection. These may be one in the same and as I am not yet versed in this, I‘m just trying to avoid purchasing the wrong item.

Thanks again!

Bill
