AV g6 is a ok pump that will go to 4500.You don't have to be 200 pounds to pump up to 3000psi.Carbon fiber 4500psi tank in 75-100 cubic foot is only way to go if your going to shoot a lot 😃 Benjamin pump I had after we found out foster fitting was plugged up, opened it up and it pumped just fine up to 3000psi, maybe a lil better than the g6 (faster).If on budget i think Walmart online had em for $125
Get a HILL and never look back !You'll get what you pay for, the pump is one thing I wouldn't cheap out on.I'm 150-155 pounds and have been pumping big guns for years, ...tedious ? Yes....hard ? not even.
+1 I bought a benji pump and it died 2 weeks into using it and I babied it because of the reports for the pump and it still quit fast. I replaced it with a hill and it never gave me any trouble. I agree with Manny pumping isnt hard its just time consuming compared to how fast you can use up the available air for the string.
Couple of questions:1. How large a volume do you need to fill (the volume of the air tube/tank)?2. What do you need to fill to 4500psi?
I'd heard good things about the Hill MK4, so I ordered two of them. One for my dad & one for me. One thing to note: they (MK4) don't come with the quick disconnect coupling, at least not from PA. You need to order that piece also.https://www.pyramydair.com/product/air-venturi-mk4-kit-by-hill-hand-pump-up-to-4500-psi?a=5501https://www.pyramydair.com/product/air-venturi-foster-female-quick-disconnect-to-1-8-bspp-male-5000-psi?a=4926

The mk4 with the AV foster fitting is the exact setup I use as well - no complaints here!

Inertia is your friend in pump land. Don't just use your weight, use your weight plus momentum. Drop it like it's hot, as the kids say.
