if you remember, a while back hybrid_sniper posted his "endless air" gadget i'll call it. well me and a friend thought this was pretty sweet and decided to make our own. it's not really improved other than the fact that we made it a little smaller since hybrid_sniper didnt have the right fittings so he had to add a coupler. this is sooooo easy to make and is definetly worth it. it took me and my friend about ten minutes to go buy the parts(25$ with the employee discount) and throw it together. no leaks the first try with just teflon tape. we hooked it up to an air tank (not even a compressor) and the gun ran at about 100 psi. we have to go buy a different adapter to fit my air compressor then we will be able to run the gun at normal operating pressure. cheers to hybrid_sniper for the awesome idea. now we just have to buy some reballs....

I still dont really see the point for the moisture catcher. Any decent compressor already has one on it.

Just a precaution the hoses may have moisture in them. but it would be really cheap if you just got the compressor fitting, a reducer 1/4 female X 1/8 female and a macro fitting. We didnt want to run the risk.

how does a HP compressor take the moisture out of the air?
1 paintball gun package=$150
1 case of paint=$50
air & entry fee=$15

Most people don't have "decent" compressors.

edit- You're welcome. Have fun.
