Anyone here who was able to install and used one of these in their Air Force rifles?

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/PCP-Air ... 3c00bMwghY

Looks like a good combination with an outside regulator and a CF tank reservoir. I currently have the stock aluminum tank on my Talon with the Altaros reg installed set at 1600 psi. This shoots very accurately 21g 22 cal H&N pellets at 25 yards and gives me about 40 shoots before the reg fails. Wanting to increase my fill pressure to say 3500 to 3700 for extra shots.

Thanks for the comments!

Will install it and see how it shoots... Valve port is 5.5mm by the way and I have another one for 4.5mm in case it shoots too strongly. Fit and stainless finish is very good with bits of tool marks here and there which one hardly notices.

The talon with .5L CF tank and HW cal 22 barrel ( 20 inch length machined by Kim "Whitewolf") . 10 shot group at 20 meters using H&N 21 grn pellets. Gauge reads 2700 psi from a 3000 psi fill after 30 shots. I changed the valve port from 5.5mm to my spare 4.5mm. Power setting is at 2. Have to chrony the speed of the pellets yet.
