Marauder arrived yesterday.
I want to bulk fill and I have this much on hand from my days flying Co2 powered model planes.
It is a 20oz Co2 tank that needs to be purged of Co2 and re-certified.
I will be building a 2240 in the near future and will also be bulk filling it.
What else is recommended for the Marauder bulk fill?

I may be in left field here, but the marauder is meant for hpa, not co2.
The discovery will run on both.
The tank and hose you have would work on a bulk co2 2240, and MAYBE even a low pressure hipac for the 2240.
But at the pressures the Mrod works at, you will need different bottles and hoses
rated for higher pressures I think...
More along the lines of either a hand pump, or a SCBA tank at 3000 psi, or a carbon fiber tank at 4500 psi.
And the appropriate hoses, and fill adapter, rated for 3000 psi...
Please correct me if I am wrong..
Congratulation on the Mrod..
Photos please..

I make 2 predictions;
ON THE DATE WHEN US TROOPS ARE ISSUED AN Energy Pulse Weapon,
1. The US Soldier will have on his person a version of the Colt 1911.
2. He will be aiming the NEW Weapon at someone carrying an AK47.

Thanks for the valuable input.
I will keep the setup for the 2240.
I don't have use of my legs so an air pump is out of the question for the Marauder.
I don't have access to a scuba shop so, is there any other type of retail store where I could purchase the hpa equipment I need?
Will I have to buy on-line? Where?

Check with the local fire department, since you aren't going to be using the hpa tanks
in a breathing capacity, they MAY fill it for you.
Our local FD (small town, Mississippi) will fill them for free.
Online would probably be your best bet, unless you are near a large area that actively supports airgunners.
Have you looked at the GTA members map to see if anyone is close to you that might be able to guide you locally?

the marauder will run on both also,theres no prob running it on c02
as long as you degas the gun of all air before you fill it with c02.
your velocities will be nowhere near what they would be on high pressure air though.

I wasn't sure, so I had to throw in the disclaimer in my first post.

After careful and quick analysis of the suggestions, coupled by my total lack of good sense, I broke down and purchased an 80 CU FT Aluminum 3300 PSI Scuba Tank with Universal Clamp from Ralph at RL.
Now I'm searching the area for a 3300psi fill station.
Any advise on cleaning the bore or break-in?
