Ghost GHOST - using a umarex g2 compressor

[Haolesan]

Hello. I am new to all this and I just got my Umarex G2 compressor. I went to fill my Ghost and realized that the default Umarex Foster won’t fit in the recessed port on the gun. I have the BRK extended foster but there is no way for me to attach it to the hose. Maybe I am crazy I don’t know but I tired everything and nothing makes sense. I am either an idiot or AOA should have been more informative and told me that while I was spending 3K over the phone (and they were informed I was new). Any info would be helpful.

And for those that care - I had the Umarex G1 and it took 7-8min to fill the Air Venturi Alpha - the G2 took 3min.

You need an adapter for the extended foster fill provide by AOA… the adapter screws on to the extended foster fill and has a foster nipple on the the other end that will attach to your fill hose…

Great choice. You'll love the Ghost!

This is the adapter you need. Extended Female Quick Connect Coupler to 1/8" BSPP Male: Airguns of Arizona | Premier Airgun Store

But - as you can read in this HAM review - it should be included with the gun. I suggest you call AoA and refer to this post.

That's a new one... Hmm can you send a pic of the line end with fitting from compressor? That extended Ghost fitting is not uncommon (used on various pcps) and is a tried and true 1/8 male BSPP.

Hi. I reached out to AOA - they were very responsive. They did send that one with the gun but with the Umarex G1/G2 you cannot attach the Ghost Foster to the Umarex hose - the seal and threads are different (I believe one is M10x1 and the other GB threaded and the seal is a cone of different size). AOA got on it and sent - THIS - which will allow me to attach this to the hose and the Ghost foster to it. I was able to use the hose from the GX filter but I had to take off the trigger guard temporarily for it to fit which was just fine because I was able to use the gun for the first time!

Thanks for sharing. Yes AoA has a great reputation for helping its customers. I am glad to hear that they have helped you too

I buy these from Amazon and get them in a few days. I have them on all my compressor to gun lines.

About 1/2 the price on AliExpress. Have to wait a week or 10 days to get them. Which probably would not be great for the OP.
