Dive bottle air cylinders provide a great way to fill PCP airguns but they are heavy to carry and need to be transported and stored safely.
The Shooting Party has a solution in the shape of the AirForceOne Cylinder Sherpa backpack carrier.
Built to protect your scuba tank from the elements too, the Cylinder Sherpa features a water-resistant, durable and easy to clean padded lining. A wide industrial zip allows easy access to the valve and pressure gauge so you can fill your rifle without taking your air bottle from the backpack. To help reduce any movement, two velcro straps hold the air cylinder in place and a re-enforced hard rigid base plate provides load bearing support.
Available in three sizes – 50cm, 58cm and 75cm – The Shooting Party says the Cylinder Sherpa backpack can take air bottles from three to eight litres capacity and has both adjustable shoulder straps and chest buckle straps.
Priced £35.99, £37.99 and £39.99, the AirForceOne Cylinder Sherpa backpack will be available at www.shootingparty.uk from June.
