Probably seen a post like this many times... but anyhoo
I just got my self a cocker and decided to run it on air, so I plan on buying the complete air thingy on Fatbobs.
Where can you get these things filled to? (apart from local site)
I'm only 15, so I don't trust myself doing it. Im bit of a clumsy dude.
Anyway, hope someone can help there.
Thanks!!:p
Only places you can get air fills are:
1. At a site that has air
2. From a dive bottle using the appropriate adapter
Not aware of any more, but I am sure i'll be corrected if there is.

Don't forget dive shops. Most will fill and check your bottle for about £1.50 . If you visit tournaments H-Pac will also be most useful and show you how to do it yourself. If u fill off a dive bottle do it slowly and read the instructions first. I have a whole team thats scared to fill their bottles on their own so you are not alone. Well 3 of them anyway.

I live in Cornwall, and from what I know, I don't think there are any dive shops, I guess I will have to check some places nearer to the coast tha from where I live.
I'll give my local site a call aswell, just to check they can do it.:)

Autococker
It depends what kind/spec of cocker :D
Think I remember you saying that you were getting a 2k3 cocker though yeah?
Cornish_skater - your sig is huge and empty - why?
Anyway, depends on whether your air system is 3000psi or 4500psi. With a stock cocker, Id guess about 500 shots from a 3000 and 800 shots from a 4500. But they are very very rough fiugures - depends a lot on your exact setup - regs, valve, pressures, bolt etc etc
