Hand pump extension hose?

[stretch]

I've got a Hills Mk III hand pump and would like to get a long extension hose so I can pump up my rifle while leaving it on the bench.  So probably 3 - 4 foot in length, with a NPT thread on one end (for the Hills pump) and a Fosters female fitting on the other end.  Is this something I might find at a industrial or diving supply shop?

I wanted something similar and it turned out the cheapest (and safe) route was to buy a microbore extension by Ninja. 

Example: www.amazon.com/Ninja-Paintball-Microbore-Fill-Extension/dp/B00IN6I26W

You may find it cheaper elsewhere.  This is just the first link I found so you can see what I'm talking about.

Thanks!

Just un-screw the air tube and remove it from the rifle. Leave the rifle on your bench and fill the tube. Thats one of the neat features of a Hatsan.

You can find it cheaper on the same page.

Yeah, there's a cheaper one by "Gorilla" that seems to have the same rating for about $20.  The longest one I'm finding is 36" but I'm looking for maybe 48" or longer.  Any ideas?

I also need a BNPP to quick connect fitting for my Hill pump.  PA sells them for $24 which seems awfully expensive.  Any cheaper sources?

I just lay the gun on some carpet.  Too easy to twist, turn, yank the gun off the table with stiff hose.

I was thinking about if I had to pump up the rifle while at an outdoor range.  I'd keep the rifle on the bench and the pump on the ground.  What I've done in the past was to bring a thin yoga pad for under the pump and put the rifle in my rifle bag, but I'd prefer to keep the rifle on the bench if I can.

As long as the gun is secure from moving, it will be fine.  I fill from guppy now, but still do it on the ground with carpet.  But, then again, all my tables have a bunch of other stuff all over them.

Keep in mind that any extension you add is more volume you will have to fill to starting psi before you can start filling the gun. If I shoot my 2260 down to 1800 psi, I have to pump 10 strokes just to fill my 1 foot hose before the gun's check valve even opens. 4 feet would probably require 40 pumps before I even start filling the gun. No thanks!

I got a Hill MK3 for Christmas and needed to get the quick connect for my Marauder.  I decided to go with a microbore hose as well.  I to was looking at the Ninja hose but I decided to go with the Air Venture Microbore hose because it had a male BSPP fitting for a direct connection to the pump.  I just received it in the mail to today.  I am guessing I won't get the quick disconnect until next week sometime thanks to Amazon's goofy multiple shipments for orders containing several items.
