It is a tube filled with paintballs that is used in stock class play. A feed tube is used in place of a standard hopper.

Its only a trracer. Hopefully will be here friday or saturday.

I was able to find some plastic composite type tube, about .75 inches in diameter. It was dirty as hell, but I cleaned it up, and cut it down and was able to get two 7 1 and a 1/4 inch tubes out of it.

Now, to figure out an end cap and a 90* fitting.

just take like a plastic vial or sumthing and pop the top off of shotgun shells and use them as caps.

i knew what it was right before i clicked it.  Yeah the paint sizes will vary but only by very small incriments.  And it you use the same paint all the time it souldnt be an issue.

edit: 10 round feed tubes sell for about .10cents each
