Page 3 - Hill Pump MK3, Up to Reviews

Very easy to pump air into my 22 cal marauders. I am a 63 year old retired office worker and do not find it a problem at all to pump up. Bought two marauders instead of any thoughts of waisting any time in the field for pump ups or contamination of my Hill pump.

Nothing.

I have not filled my marauders beyond 2750 psi but should not be a problem to pump to 3000 psi in my opinion since it is so easy with this hand pump.

Great working hpa pump. Works like its advertised.

nothing, other than the price but hopefully this pump will last a very long time

I don't know if it helps but I came with the idea to unscrew the filter after I'm done with it and place it in a zip-loc bag to make the dry-pac last longer.

Well made. fills my Air Force Condor SS from 2000 lbs. to 3000lb. In about 160 pump strokes.

Could use a longer hose and the base could be a little larger to keep pump from tipping over.

It doesn't seem to get very hot on the outside but it is recommended to let it cool for 10 min. After every 40 pump strokes.

I purchased this pump as a replacement for a Benjamin pump that had to be rebuilt twice. This pump is the best quality pump available,don't think twice, buy it!

Nothing

The filter system that is included with the pump is great for removing any moisture produced by high pressure compressed air that will damage your air rifle

Solid construction,best pump i have ever used. Smooth operation,fast filling. Takes less energy than the other pumps we own.Definitely worth the extra money.

Nothing.

If you buy a pump,buy this one.

this pump is very well built & sturdy.

nothing.

Iam I am 63 yrs. old &130 lbs. and can pump my m-rod I pump a little &rest a little.

What a great way to charge my PCP's... Very easy & not hard at all... A very smart investment... I researched on- line and wasn't sure which way to go-pump or air tank... I'm so glad I choose the pump... Takes less than a few minutes for full charge... Very happy with my purchase... Don't cheat yourself, treat yourself!!

Nothing

Air tanks are cool, but this pump rocks!!! It's an investment, and well worth it.... And air is free......

It works but you have to put out an effort. You get your exercise using one. I am 6 ft 5 inches and 260 lbs and it is easy to pump toward the 2500 to 3000 I can tell I am using more energy. I have not tried others but like the idea they have a kit to rebuild the pump. I have not had a problem with this pump and would recommend it if that is the way you want to go.

a longer hose and bigger base.

I use my shooting rest and lay my marauder with the barrel toward the floor and the pump will fit easy. The gun is upside down so I can see the air guage

This is my first pump so I have nothing to compare it with. It was easy to put together. It is simple to use and it works great.

Sell with the proper fittings you need for you gun.

There is still a physical activity needed to use

The hill pump takes less effort and less pumps then others in its class.

The base could be a little sturdier.

If you buy a pump make sure it has a dry pack of some kind if you live in a humid area!

This is a very good hand pump. It is very well built,and you can tell as soon as you put your hands on it. It's heavy,and well put together.

The price is a little on the steep side.

I also have a Benjamin hand pump,what a joke. It worked for two weeks than wouldent pump air. It created a vacume that wouldent let the handle come up.So I got the hill pump,what a joy. should have got this one first and saved a hundred bucks. It's a much better pump then the benjamin,plus it's rebuildable.

I am very happy I purchased this pump. Though it was more expensive, it's the best value for quality and durability. This was built to last.

Nothing

Make sure you use the correct silicone grease needed. If you use the pump a lot then this should be greased often to insure long life.

Fills a smaller precharged gun with ease! Even from a completely dry air tank, it only takes about 4 minutes of vigorous pumping to get it filled to 3000 psi (roughly 200 bar). Very nicely made and feels solid as a rock. Should last many many years with basic servicing!

None so far...

Pump valving feels pretty stiff when first being used... it will loosen up after some use. To get it to loosen a little quicker, try filling a rifle from dead empty. I'm totally new to these guns and this pump makes this a worthwhile hobby for me!

industrial quality and easy stroke.

Instructions. I had no clue where the red washer went.

This pump is very well built and has an easy stroke. I just bend at the knees and let body weight do the work. If you can do deep knee bends you can use this pump!

The moisture filter. Ease of use.

nothing

I think this one is about 33% percent easier to use than the benjamin. Don't make the mistake I did to buy the benjamin because it's cheaper. You'll only regret it. If you have a foster fitting on your gun also buy this: Air Venturi Female Quick-Disconnect Adapter, 1/8" BSPP Male Threads, Steel, Rated to 5000 PSI

The quality of the build. Spend a little more and cry now. Spend less and cry later. I has a lifetime warranty and is built like a tank. Pumping up a gun is not a big deal- takes a couple of minutes of a light workout. You'll never have to worry about a low tank again.

Nothing

It says not recommended for anyone one under 170. Don't worry about that. I only weigh 140 and have no problems- I am in pretty good shape however.

It is a high quality, high pressure pump. Only warms up slightly after 75 straight pump session (need a break). It does not takes that much more effort to pump up to 200 bar and I weight only 140 pounds at 5'3". Concentrate the down push power from chest then to triceps and elbow. It's a great upper body workout. I'm gonna look like a gorilla after the summer with this pump.

Could have included a small tube of lube to start with and maybe a tad bit longer hose (6" more would be great) and a tad bit larger stand (not to step on to pump but my dog sniff it and it tips over too easily)

I listened to the other air gunners and got the Hill pump from the start. I think it's gonna be good! I like the idea of pumping the air instead of using scuba tank (perhaps later to quick fill for certain situation) and I get a great workout doing it!

This pump exceeds my expectation. I use it to fill my paintball 3000psi tanks. From completely empty to full it takes 100-150 pumps and about 5-10min. The pumping is not difficult and the pump does not over heat like the pumps shown on the internet reviews. Having the capability to manually fill a tank is awesome and will pay for itself over time.

Just continue to improve the product, more volume per pump at the same are cheaper price point.

If you use it to fill a paintball tank purchase the proper hose attachment / adapter to interface with your tank. They sell them to.

This is a quality pump, takes less effort to pump than the Benjamin pump but a few more strokes. Your Benjamin pump hose will work on this pump so you would not need to buy an adaptor to fill your disco or M-rod.

Nothing should be changed.

This is a very well made hand pump. It took me approximatrely 200 strokes to air up my Marauder .22 from 0 to 300 PSI so it di the job without getting tired.

I would make the hose longer. The short hose makes it ackward to attach to the rifle without laying the gun on the ground directly in front of the pump.

Definitely recommend this. I don't think you will ever need to buy another.
