Building a dependable PCP setup takes more than a great rifle. You need a complete ecosystem for safe filling, smart maintenance and targeted upgrades. In this hub you’ll find everything from bottles, adapters and pumps to precision barrels and ergonomic stocks, so you can configure a filling station and a rifle that fit your shooting style.
PCP Filling Bottles
High-pressure bottles (3–12 L) are the most popular option for frequent refills. Available in steel and carbon fiber with working pressures up to 300 bar, they deliver multiple top-ups before needing a recharge. Paired with a proper filling kit — gauge, valve, adapter and high-pressure hoses — bottles provide safe, repeatable refills without relying on external services every time.
Bottle Accessories & Adapters
Reliable filling depends on the right fittings:
- G5/8 and DIN adapters: ensure compatibility across valve standards.
- High-pressure hoses: mesh-reinforced and rated up to 300 bar for safety.
- Quick couplers: fast, secure connect-disconnect between rifles and probes.
- Precision gauges: accurate pressure monitoring during the fill.
- Moisture filters: reduce water ingress and protect internal parts.
PCP Hand Pumps
Manual 3- or 4-stage hand pumps offer portability and low entry cost for independent filling. They require physical effort and time, so choose models with moisture traps and robust O-rings to extend service life and safeguard your rifle.
PCP Air Compressors
Electric compressors (220V home units or 12V portable models) provide the quickest refills — often in minutes — with auto shut-off at preset pressure, cooling systems and integrated moisture filtration. They are the premium solution for high-volume shooters and clubs.
Precision Barrels
The barrel is the heart of accuracy. Aftermarket precision barrels (various materials and treatments) can tighten groups and improve consistency. Key considerations:
- Length and profile: chosen for the intended role — hunting, target or long-range.
- Rifling and twist rate: match the projectile type — many slugs prefer different twists than diabolo pellets.
- Fitment: correct installation by a competent technician prevents accuracy loss and ensures alignment.
Stocks & Cheek Risers
Ergonomics drive repeatable accuracy. Replacement stocks, adjustable cheek risers and improved pads help achieve consistent eye alignment with optics, better recoil control and all-day comfort. A well-fitted stock reduces fatigue and stabilizes your shooting position.
Variety, sub-calibers & specialized fittings
From sub-caliber filling probes to different hose lengths and seal grades, component choice lets you tailor a system to your rifle and usage. Quality O-rings, certified gauges and moisture control are non-negotiables for safety and longevity.
Buying tips
- Define your use case: occasional (hand pump), frequent (bottle) or intensive (compressor).
- Verify compatibility: probes, quick couplers and adapters must match your rifle’s port and valve standard.
- Prioritize safety: moisture filters, certified hoses and accurate gauges protect gear and users.
- For barrels: consult specs and consider professional installation to guarantee performance.
- Keep spares: O-rings and filters are low-cost parts that prevent downtime.
TL;DR
PCP Filling & Upgrade Accessories brings together bottles, adapters, hand pumps, compressors, precision barrels and ergonomic stocks in one place. The goal: safe filling, improved field performance and a personalized fit for consistent accuracy.

FAQ
Which filling solution suits beginners best?
Manual 3- or 4-stage hand pumps are cost-effective and independent, though they require effort and time.
Do I need a specific adapter for my rifle?
Yes — most PCPs use dedicated probes or quick couplers. Always verify compatibility before purchase.
Are 12V portable compressors safe for field use?
Yes, provided they are certified and include moisture filtration and auto shut-off.
Can I install a precision barrel myself?
Professional fitment is recommended. Improper installation can reduce accuracy or damage components.
