So what do you all need for the Benjamin Marauder??? It claims uses co2 also now is that a different set up? Lets put it this way if I wanted to order this today and wanted to be able to shoot when I got it what all do I need?
Also when you have to fill these why or cant you use a home compressor? Is that possible?

all the info you need is here:

I shot CO2 for a while give me .22 cal at 575fps. you get more shot per fill with .22, if you fill it right with liguid co2. bad you can shoot 900fps with compress air.

You need to pump to min 2500 psi and a home compressor will do 100-125, co2 can be used but at lower power than air. You need a hand pump or a scuba ( or the like ) tank. The guys that have 'em will be along with more details

I've never run my Mrod on CO2 so I can't advise you on that but as far as running on HPA..... in order to shoot it right from the box you'll need a way to air it up. That means either a hand pump, a scuba or SCBA tank or a suitable compressor designed for filling HPA tanks. As for a regular home compressor..... it just won't work.
If you do decide to go the hand pump route do yourself a favor and buy either the Hill or the FX hand pump, they are worth the extra money.
