I know the marauder has quick disconnect and the hill pump 1/8'' female thread Are these compatable? Please Help!!!! _________________ airgunhuntersoucy   Posted: Wed Mar 31, 2010 4:43 pm rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC The Hill pump likely ends in 1/8" - 28 BPT thread (British pipe thread).... You can thread a 1/8" - 27 NPT male fitting into it.... ONCE.... and if you use teflon tape it will seal OK.... Once you have a hose that ends in 1/8" NPT all you need is a female Foster fitting to attach to the Disco....

Maybe you could change out the fitting all together? And then put a QD on it. _________________ "I never set out to be wierd, it was always everyone else who called me it" -Frank Zappa Speed is impressive, accuracy is deadly.

You will find similar issues with the FX pumps and I believe the AirForce one as well.... They all have their unique threads and you have to get from that thread to 1/8" NPT so that you can thread on a female Foster quick-detach fitting which is what is required to fit the Disco or Marauder.... Of course, you could also purchase a Benjamin pump ala Disco, it already has the hose and fitting on it.... I am now on my second Disco pump, the first lasted about a year and a half of very hard use.... Bob _________________ Dominion Marksman Silver Shield - 5890 x 6000 in 1976, and downhill ever since!

Hi.. It only seems that way because people make it so.... Its really so easy....buy a 1/8 BSP male nipple... screw it in to the pump then screw a female quick connect "foster" fitting on to it.. See told yer it was easy... PS..if yer come across a funny thread that yer can't fined anything to fit....Its most lighty "JIS" hydrulic tread...Career love them.. Pete   Posted: Wed Mar 31, 2010 8:54 pm rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC HI Pete.... I see two things wrong with that.... 1. You will never find a 1/8" BSP nipple in North America.... 2. While it is possible to fill the Marauder directly from the pump without a flex hose in between.... aligning the two would drive me nuts.... I don't know about you....

Bob Ok..I asumed he was putting the fill probe/fosters fitting on the end of a hose... can't get a 1/8" BSP nipple ....You joke surely... While we are on the subject of pumps.... How dose a pump with a out put of 14.5cc @ 3000psi per stroke sound....some of the parts are in my lathe as I type...

Metric is not a problem in Canada, but Whitworth or BSF is entirely another matter.... and in the USA even rarer....

Standard is a bit archaic, but we all learned it and use it. It would be very hard to get everyone to convert. Broom and Alstone, do you guys normally use metric or standard when you talk about airguns (not online). EDIT: If I were to approach you as a stranger at home and asked what the major calibers where, would you respond in metric or standard? _________________ "I never set out to be wierd, it was always everyone else who called me it" -Frank Zappa Speed is impressive, accuracy is deadly.

Bob Ok..... as a matter of intrest....Whitworth & UNC are the same tread apart from 1/2"... Whitworth has 12 treads per inch & UNC has 13..
