it should definitely come off, you might need some wrenches though. i am pretty sure theres an o-ring on it

Me likes.
If you can make a custom hangrip out of bondo or something, it would be uber-1337.
You might consider sawing the fitting off of the blowgun, then drilling it out. You'll probably notice the difference in preformance.
I'll stick with my eureka

slightly bigger chamber would do good for power, methinks, but nice effort.

Nice gun. I like the tiny pressure gauge. Is sch80 3/4" pvc a good barrel for paintballs?

Very nice gun! I too like the mini gauge. Keep up the good work!
No, 3/4" Sch 40 fits paintballs horribly. 3/4" Sch 80 works fine, but I would reccomend 3/4" CPVC because it fits paintballs perfectly, and I'm not sure about 1/2" SDR 21.
