I am designing a strand burner to characterize my propellant. Richard
Nakka
recommends using nitrogen to pressurize the chamber. I was considering
using an air gun hand pump which is capable of 3000 psi. Is there a
hazard
with burning propellant with pressurized air instead of Nitrogen?

Any help is appreciated.

Don't do that! That's how a diesel engine works.
