You could modify a turd to fire out of an airsoft barrel, but I think he's looking to just fire .22's right out of the box, much less labour intensive. Ya i am looking for an out of the box solution, it would be a lot better for repeatability and accuracy i assume. Just got a 6mm barrel today and b...

Copper and brass are pretty easy to file out (brass is a little harder). I just filed a brass fitting last night with little effort. Be patient and it'll work. How hard would it be for you to get a bigger tee? That would probably be the best bet. I could get another tee no problem but i want to kee...

Im a little short on fittings so what ive done is put a shrader valve on to a 3/4 b...
