Have had a couple of break action German RWS air rifles in the past but the first PCP rifle is a Benjamin Maximus 22 cal, see the air pumps as cheap as $50 Chinese to several hundred dollar pumps. Any tips on what kind of pump would be worth buying, plan on using the Benjamin for cleaning out some of the yard vermin. Thanks Ron

Depending on your wallet there are the Cheap but effective Chinese pumps that are in the $50 range that you add a $50-$70 inline filter to so you don't introduce moisture into the gun and the Hill brand with moisture absorbing dry pack attachment.
Wal-Mart has the optional protection plan which I would pay for the longest extended plan available if not mechanicanically inclined to service or fix it yourself. That way you get a refund or an exchange for a brand new one or free upgrade if it becomes obsolete.

There is the Umarex brand made by Hill but you must buy the $49 dry pack as well. Just buy whatever your wallet allows.

I just use the basic Benjamin pump. Small air cylinder on the rifle and low pressure make it easy to pump.

Many are happy with the cheap Chinese pumps. I can tell you first hand that I'd never by another Hill. Went through 2 of them.

I have a Hill Mk4 and it is perfect.
PS: don’t do the Hill dry pack as it is in the input not the output and is therefore useless - get an inline filter

Best value I've found recently, I've got two. Easy to work on, work great and can easily be watercooled. (I used antifreeze in my tube) Takes about 10 mins the first time you break it down if you're mechanically inclined at all.
