Its been years since I've needed to buy one and not the most exciting product to research... What are people's favourites for quick inflation of large tyres, reliability etc?

Lezyne alloy drive.
But you'll really want a Micro Drive...

Had a topeak mountain morph for years - very good. Kinda tempted by the slightly smaller one (mini morph?) though,

There's a Crank Brothers pump going spare if you want it?

I could give you an OS grid reference, accurate to within 10m, should you wish to go find it; it was thrown away at the weekend by someone I was riding with - he thought he'd try using his own pump before mine...

Another vote for the Mountain Morph!

mountain morph here ...

the blackburn is no where near as good .... ive had airsticks , mtn airs and another one they do .... all ok - none great ... the morph is just like a small track pump - love it ... can get full psi (100) in to a road tire too without bustin me baws

Blackburn Mammoth. The best MTB mini-pump bar none. Super-reliable, lifetime guarantee.

No more pumping like a lunatic for half an hour with a tiny roadie-sized pump. You want volume not pressure with your MTB mini-pump.

Yeah I have a mammoth as well and they are good, and the lifetime warrantee is good, but I think the M Morph works so much betterer 😆

Used & owned a Blackburn, bought a MTN morph as a replacement, fixed the BB with a new o-ring, but I still carry/use the MM. The BB's are good pumps, but the MM's a much better pump IMO,

Avoid the mini, after a promising start it's given me nothing but grief.

Topeak Mountain Morph

This^. I am a flash bastard and have the Turbo Morph tho, which is the same pump, just with a gauge on it.

Mountain Morph. Nthed...

As used by most of the guide types I know too, who spend an inordinate amount of time blowing up other peoples tyres.

i've got a Leyzne thingy, it's very nice, but not actually any better than my other pump:

which cost about £3

and yes, it fits in my riding-bag.

Looks like I'm the only one voting for the Crank pump, I have binned my Blackburn and Topeak ones ! The Crank unit feels and works so much better and hi low volume bit clinches it for me.
