That's just odd. It should be a standard fitting, are you sure you're just running your standard steel-braid line from your asa to the expansion chamber?

Most hardware stores will carry brass fittings that will reduce from the line fitting down to the chamber fitting. But is this what you have?

If that is what you have, and you are sure the hole is improperly sized, then it sounds like a manufacturing defect. I would contact Tippmann, or else who you bought the expansion chamber from, and see about getting it replaced.

You might have ordered the X-chamber kit for the custom pro. Go to tippmannparts.com, they have two different kits. One for a 98 and one for a 98pro.

O.k I read up a bit on tippmannparts.com. It seems the only difference is the length. My bad...
