Others Compressor

[Danman]

I haven't noticed a difference filling my AAA yet. I was under the impression that it was supposed to consume a bit of silicone oil, even though mine hasn't needed a top off in the last few years. How many hours do you have on yours?

I have zero hours on "mine" ...I added it to cart and that's as far as I got I am hoping to get it soon so I can do justice to my Ghost...
The place I was gonna get it from is out of stock on the filter, id hate to run without. After my extensive research and required usage it seems to be about perfect. It's pricey but it's serviceable/rebuildable. They set up YOU to service it yourself and sell kits for doing so, along with how- to vids. That sold me big time. Any compressor that 'uses' silicone (for internal lubrication) there will be a good chance a small amout will end up in your guns. My British pcps? They recommend a bit of silicone oil so it's perfect actually.

Apparently there is a dive shop ~10 mins from my place that fills to 4500. That makes just getting a tank or just a portable more appealing…

@RicL Not a bad way to start. Check and see what they charge for fills and what their requirements are for that type of service.

Missed the $1300 limit.

Call AOA and ask them about the Omegas they just got. Have a buddy down in AZ right now and he just picked one up from them.

If you like to tinker the compressors on Amazon are ok... but don't expect to much from them. Check on AGN for used compressors, as that is where I got my supercharger for $700! There are deals to be had, you just need to look and get lucky.

I've had an Air Charger for years and never an issue. Should be under that $1300. At least it used to be years ago when I bought it.

There is a refurbished Hill ec-3000 at pyramyd for $799.99 if that interests you.

Whichever one you buy, if there is an option for extended warranty, I would buy it.

Any issues if I go w/ the GX CS3-I? Says it’s oil free, perhaps they just mean maintenance…. This portable or a Guppy from Joe Brancato is probably what I will end up with. Seems like the most convenient options for me.

Imy GX CS3-I ran for two years before giving out to only pump up to 3000 psi. And thats servicing it proper over time as well. I still use it to charge my 3000 psi or less air rifles. GX makes an awesome product and that's why i purchased the GX CS4 as its replacement. It's water cooled and a lot quieter running too.

Gonna order a GX CS3-I by Monday on Amazon. Anyone know if the quality of the fill whip and moisture filter are good enough? Or should I get other ones? Want to be using the safest stuff possible when dealing with such high pressures.

Maybe I should just cough up more dough and go American made.

I always sleep better when I spend a bit more, and get what I need.
