Great pump for your Redshank, Pre-1999 Avon used military-style valves, in which case you'll want the Barrel Pump with the check valve, Item # 1709. Later Avons should have Leafield valves. The end of the pump hose will fit in these valves, but an adapter gives you a more hassle-free fit. If you have Leafield C7 valves, Item # 14821 is the adapter. If you have Leafield B7 or military valves, get Item # 1716.9.

NRS 5" Barrel Pump - No Check Valve
Q:
I have an NRS Osprey and I want to know if I need this pump with or without the check valve? Or does it matter?
The check valve is needed for valves like military valves, that don't have a one-way inflation feature. The Leafield C7 valves on your Osprey don't need the check valve.
