| I see they are out of stock at Crosman also. Might be worth calling Crosman to see when they will be back in stock. |

HI Lampy
I called Crosman yesterday, they have them in stock, but not with out the pumps, PA has 15 of them in stock, but none with out the pumps. maybe i will forget about buying the fill stuff for the scuba tanks and just get a Disco with a pump, wonder how long the fun will last filling with a hand pump and how long does it take to fill a Disco.

always a good idea to have a pump on hand anyway. air tanks do run out at the most inconvenient times. i have three tanks and a shoebox compressor, but i still keep two handpumps for emergencies.  also the discovery is just about the easiest pcp rifle to fill with a handpump. |

| I think Crosman has moved away from selling them without the pumps, period. Not sure why they did this, but I assume when all the units w/o pump are gone, that will be it for all calibers. |

Starting with an empty gun mine takes 90 to 100 pumps to fill to 2000 psi, I do 20 pumps at a time followed by a short break (15-20 seconds) to let the pump cool, then another 20 etc. etc. It takes about 50 pumps to get back up to 2000 psi from 1000 psi.
Since most of my shooting is indoors, punching paper I prefer to use CO2. I get around 60 shots per fill and it is a little quieter. |
