Anybody heard of one? I am building a golf ball gun and I found out the hard way that quick connects do not hold pressure when detached from the compressor. Are there any that do and if so, where can I find them?

Thanks in advance.

Ninja mini fill valve..5000psi rating. Have a couple and they work great...even better if you place a LIGHT spring such to hold it closed.
