Airforce Help with male to male? for Benjamin Tank.

[EdgeC]

I purchased this... lol years ago and it does not have a male fitting to hook up to a airpump/handpump. So I forgot about it and never used it...

This one

There as so many sizes, options I know I will buy the wrong thing. Anyone recommend one on amazon?

I won't be using a regulator (yet) and I just want to be able to fill it up to 3000psi and connect it unregulated to my rifle. (I later will get a regulator).

So, any recommendations on I guess a male to male? One male connects into this tanks, female line and the other end would connect to my pumps female line.

Thanks, any help is appreciated.


P.S
(I don't think it matters, but It will be connecting to a texan ss (old tank, 3000psi).

I think I got the last one I bought from Pyramyd Air. I still use it.
I bought a cheap one once on ebay and it let go at 4k.. I was able to shut the compressor down but the hose on the tank was a different story. That hose was flailing around trying to kill me.

You have the correct one..

Let me understand, you'll be using a double male foster to connect compressor hose to tank hose for filling the tank? It appears in the picture (Amazon ad) that there's a male foster on the tank ( with a rubber cap) and THAT'S what's used for filling tank from your compressors's hose. You shouldn't even need a double male, or am I misunderstanding? Or, is your tank different from the one shown in ad?

I didn't buy the one pictured. I just bought that exact same styled tank. The tank comes with its own hose and the end of the hose is a female end (so it can connect to the rifle.) The compressor also has a female end... so they can connect to the rifle. As such, since the end of the tank is female (i didn't buy a hose) I needed a way to connect the female end of my air compressor, to the female end of the the tank listed above. Hence the male to male. One end of the male goes into my air compressor and the other end of the male goes into the female end of my tank. Allowing them to fill each other up.

You always bleed the line before you disconnect from a compressor. Also the tanks have a manual valve. Close that, before bleeding the line.

OK, thanks, got it. Double male is what's needed.

I was looking at the valve on the tank you linked and you don't need a male at all you simply connect your compressor female to the male ON THE TANK VALVE !!!! It is a one way valve, lets air in and won't let it out, just like the male on your gun...
