Were can I find a small pilot valve that I can use to trigger my QEV.
I want it to be able to work at 300 psi (20bars) pressure.


The current valve I´m using is a simple ball valve, witch I think is to big and it doesnt feel as a trigger.

check ebay or mcmasters



personally id say go with a pneumatic relief valve, they are aluminum and will launch golf balls out of sight in seconds!and with these valves its already piloted!

Is this gun connected to a constant air source? If so, the MJVO-3 has been proven at those pressures. A slide valve is always good too.

If you have a "fill here and shoot over there" setup then you can use a pistol-grip blowgun for that trigger feel. What size QEV is this? A good modded blowgun can handle a 3/4" QEV with no trouble.
