Story time. So I was going to go paintballing yesterday with some of my friends and we were also going to take some girls that never played before. I was trying to get more markers so the girls could play. I started calling around and I talked to some people that played the day before. Turned out that they took a new girl out paintballing too but she went out and got a gun. So I call her and ask if I can borrow it for the day and she says sure. She brings it over. It was a brass eagle talon and she says you can just have it. So I played with it all day using 12 grams and I was thinking wow these suck so i did some research and found the directions to make my own C/A adapter and I have to say it turned out rather well for $5 worth of stuff. On to the Pics....








I am in a hurry I cant fix my pictures now. What is wrong?

be very careful and make sure the tubing is rated for a high enough pressure.

Thanks kurieitaa for fixing my pictures.
They are all pressure fittings. I couldn't find pressure ratings on them. I was surprised that there were no leaks the first time i put it together. It is ghetto but the gun itself is ghetto. I would try it with a remote line but I don't have one and the tank feels alright surprisingly.

Parts list:
1/4 barb x 1/8 female
1/8 x 1 1/2 brass nipple
1/8 brass coupler
1/8 x 2 1/2 brass nipple 
Stock ion duckbill
Teflon tape

total cost $5.72 vs $25 palmers dummy 12 gram.

I may cut off the front part of the asa.

Great work! I think Brass Eagle intentionally tries to make their guns ugly.
The old Talon didn't look half bad. This is the first time I have seen the new
model. Blah.
