Just on the bay purchasing a reg core from KevG and the algorithm popped up someone selling a time bomb bottle with an old style air arms filler planted in the base. >:(
yeah saw that the other day, the regulator/pre-chamber might be of interest.
The bottle ..
Thought the description was very apt,"Rocket bottle"! Certainly would be if it failed
I dont sell on ebay that will be pcp airguns.

I saw one for sale a while ago. i had never seen one before. it looked home made,i questioned how good the air seal would be around the probe.didnt bother bidding on it and went for the Dr Bob fast fill option. Was i right, are they homemade?

25+ years ago there was a company that advertised QF'd bottles in AGW, some were done by the tuners of the day..undoubtedly others were homemade.
I have one in a drawer that was filled to 230bar al least 2-3 times a week, only reason it went out of use was the valve squealed/chattered like buggery-not good at night.
