Bill, I have 3 hand pumps, one is a Hill mk4 and still hand pump both my PCP’s. The Hill is dedicated to my Regal the Chinese Pump to the Compatto...so, yes, folks still pump the old fashioned way...at least I still do! Hill makes great pumps albeit costly.

I have a MKIII that has been my only fill source for going on 5 years now. It is so well built and easy to service, I cannot imagine ever needing to replace it.

I have a hill mk3. After a year it broke, got the hill mk4. Broke again. What I mean broke is, it's very hard to pump up, and it takes more effort to get to 3000 psi. So threw them away. End up getting a Yong Heng. About same price as an hill pump. Would never go back to pumping a hand pump. Trust me, once you step up to a compressor. You won't go back to hand pump. It fills a gun in 1-2 mins. Very fast. Try hand pumping a Marauder to 3000, possible but very tired. Now try pumping an 480cc bottle gun like an impact. You won't do it. I know I won't. Compressor is the way to go. There's even that hatsan spark for $377 that runs off 12v if you won't want to get a Yong Heng. Save a few more bucks and get an compressor. Just my 2 cent

I don't know about that, I have a compressor but gone back to using my handpumps,

I had a lot off HILLs but now I go exclusively with the Chinese pumps.
