Title: Gx portable compressor
Post by: DMR214 on March 16, 2021, 06:02:29 PM
So has anybody had any experience with these oil free compressors. I like that I can use my car battery & the 110v house plug.  Still looking for the right compressor. BTW my airpump never arrived by FedEx postmate or something. So I want to order one that will ship asap or is returnable if it's damaged upon arrival.

Will this be good or should I stay away.

I have one going on 7 months now, still chugga-chugga-chugging along just fine, no oil to change, no water to hook up, no nothing but fill and shoot. About 4-5 guns refilled weekly without issues.

There was one recent review where the pump finally went out and since it was within one year, Amazon simply shipped him another new one. To be fair he could not locate the original seller so he took it up w/Amazon who then did right by him.

And here is a guy on Youtube who had his longer than me and fills far more guns. He updates on its performance from time to time:

So I'm about to check out and I started thinking. Do I need any filters ,moitsture traps, different lines, or adapter an order to fill up the avenger. Or does it already come with everything I need.

I have had one for about 3 months...so far so good...and, no you shouldn't need anything else.  It has a built in moisture trap...for added precaution I picked up an additional moisture trap that I fill will desiccant.

I bought the same ~$17-$18 trap Kenneth uses, but also bought the larger filters to put inside of it and did not use the smaller cigarette-filter-sized ones that it came with:

I attached it to a 90-degree elbow fitting for better clearance without removing the silencer:

Also get the bigger filters if that is a small one in there (cigarette sized, which is too small).
