3 options really.

 

1. Buy a pump... Pay around £90 - £150 and just pump the rifle as and when required.

2. Buy a Bottle £130 - £200 fill from a dive centre or local gun shop for approx £10 (you will get alot of shooting out of a large 300 bar bottle)

3. Get the rifle filled at your local gun dealer. Expensive way of doing it and not recommended.

 

Hope this helps..

the hand pump will be hard. you'll be puffed out by the time you fill the bottle.

you want a stirrup pump mate the 3 stage ones are meant to be the dogs these days. or if you dont use it much get it filled at a dive centre they should charge about £1 to fill that. i get charged £3 to fill my 12litre 300 bar up

FX four stage is easy work and cheap in the long run

 

I also own a R10 and i use this pump

If you do go down the pump route then my advise would be that, don't let the rifle drop to a low pressure. Top up after every session.

i use a divers bottle, but if my mates got it i get mine filled up at my local gun shop for £1.

oh and an r10 for a gun that u wont use much?? must have money to burn
