Got this CZ 200T,came with this fill adap, and nothing else,caliper say .899 on the male threads,need to go to 1/4"foster male...any ideas???Rifles cylinder screws into female end which is smaller...as shown in second pic.

Barry, I'd talk to the folks at Pilkguns, Airguns of Arizona, or Straight Shooters. They all sell some exotic airguns and may have or know what adapter you need. There are also other dealers that might know whose names escape me right now (Senior Moment, don't ya know?).
-
I`ve got some e-mail feelers out,just hopin someone may have allready encountered this...waitin on Joe Brancato to get with me...

Barry, is that 0.899" dimension the length of the threads, or their diameter? If it's the diameter, that's probably a DIN thread adapter. My Hill pump came with a microbore hose with 1/8 BSPP threads as well as an adapter with male 1/8 BSPP on one side and female 200 DIN on the other. I don't have a male 200 DIN fitting to measure, but the female ID is 0.809" or thereabouts. That would match pretty closely to an OD of 0.899 for a male fitting.
An earlier review of the CZ 200 ( http://home.hiwaay.net/~ispellan/Cz200.html ) metioned that at the time, the Hill pump was the preferred filling device for the gun. The author used an Air-Arms branded Hill pump and he didn't mention needing to buy a separate adapter so I'd bet you have a DIN 200 adapter there.
BTW, Pyramyd has a manual for the gun on its website: http://www.pyramydair.com/site/manuals/S200-manual.pdf
Hope this helps!

Yeah Rolls, .899 is the diam.,I also have the manual,only it`s in Czech! 8)
-
OK, methinks that's an adapter for DIN 200-threaded SCUBA tanks and air pumps. Joe Brancato should be able to put together something for you if he doesn't already have them pre-made.
BTW, the manual on Pyramyd's site is in English, so it might be worth your while to grab a copy.
Good luck!
-
I did,THX Rolls!
-
Hey, Barry, Pyramyd has what looks like the very adapter you need: http://www.pyramydair.com/a/PCP_and_CO2_accs/PCP/Adapters/81
Second item on the page, $25.99.
Hope this helps!

If you use a SCUBA tank that adapter screws right onto the valve. If you look into the SCUBA valve where the air comes out it looks like it will accpet a big allen wrench, that's because it does. Use and allen wrench, and the moddle of the valve screws out (no need to remove air, this is not pressurized when the valve is closed). Uncrew that big allen screw and screw your adapter into the hole. Fill the tank as you normally would using the gauge on the air tube to monitor your fill, fill slow. That's it, no adapters needed, just the thing you already have and your gun. If you fill from a pump with a Foster end, then you need the adapter like was mentioned above. Hope this helps,
-
His original post stated that he wants to adapt that to a female Foster fitting, which is why I've been trying to help him find such an adapter. The CZ 200 S/T manual on Pyramyd's site shows exactly what you are describing, Dan. Bet that might even screw straight into the valve on my 88 cu ft 4500 psi tank.
-
Both my tanks have a "K" valve but no removable center(all 1 piece)Just gonna break down and buy a K x 200 DIN yoke! :)

Bummer dood, my only experience is with the normal scuba tanks, guess I assumed they were all the same. BTW: I just looked through some old posts and Gene had the same issue filling his S200 when he first got it and I gave him the same answer, he posted pictures of it so you can see how the normal tanks work:

I guess with yours you'll have to use that adapter like Rolls Royce showed you from Pyramid. How are you liking your S200 btw? Hopefully it came at least partway filled so you could take a few shots before it was empty. I love mine, although it's been getting neglected since I stepped back over the line and bought myself a, dare I say, SPRINGER! Ouch, that was painful :o :o :o
Saw that you also have a Super10, Ultra, and Lonestar those are awesome too...man you have all the cool toys, haha!!! Take care Barry,
-
I like it pretty well,Dano.Yeah it came full so I`ve been able to get the sights pretty much on.Yeah you could say I`m a fan of BSA`s,only downside, a flat wallet.Oh well,I didn`t want to go on vaca. this year anyway!Actually the Hornet,Lonestar and Ultra I bought used but just like new,the Super 10 came from Jim Stanis up in Michigan,don`t see many of`em for sale used. 8) And Dano I drooled over your toys a time or two!
-
Well I DO have some nice toys, but I've trimmed back my collection to just a couple now. I figured why have three dozen Dodges when I could own just a couple Porshes, that was the theory at least:) I'm gearing up to go for some new ones here in the future, just not sure what I want yet, it's a terrible addiction this Airgunnitis. Glad you like your S200, they are excellent shooters!
