PCP charge pipe

So I’ve just bought a bsa super 10 and I’ve got a diving bottle ready but what type of charge pipe do I need?
Or what setups have people got?
Do I need a pressure valve or just open and watch the gauge on the rifle ?
The rifle has a quick connect and I have the adaptor that goes in it but no pipe

Any suggestions welcome thanks

I call them a whip but that is from diving/testing cylinders etc

You will be decanting what ever you BSA 10 working pressure (say 200 bar) so once you have filled it then the line still has 200 in it.
You BSA will have a no return valve so it wont leak from the fill port, so you will need to bleed the 200 bar off via a bleed valve on the other sider of your tank valve.
Just go on to an air gun sales site or Bever Diving as they carry that type of kit.
Remember once your dive tank is at 200 from 232/300 bar then your fills will become less.
 
Just to add depends on what sort of pillar valve you have on your bottle. If not A frame the screw in gauge but I do not have one as i have 3x standard dive tanks.

Don't be too proud and rule out a visit to your local and friendly gun shop with a view to a demonstration in correct & safe charging. This to include post fill line bleed off/dump down.

When I tested cylinders the air gunners used to come in the dive shop for a fill or testing, we stocked MDE kit with the whips A clamp and DIN fittings,
the times I would take the butchered valve/fitting/whip and replace parts! ****ing useless would be coming from under my breath :eek:
And I bet it has changed very little lol
 
Is this a mk1 super 10 anyone ? Or is it an r10?
Doesn’t actually say on it
The whole barrel is the silencer too
