That sounds like a solid setup for bulk fill! The dummy 12g cartridge with the BSP fittings is a smart way to adapt. A close-up and disassembly would definitely be interesting to see. Also, a good paintball regulator helps maintain consistent pressure—this resource has more details!

Hey Bilbo,
Hope it's not too late but some close ups of what you did would be amazing if you could!

You can buy heated jackets that use a battery, and quite possibly heated socks too. Only hassle being that you would need a battery.

Looking back on that early thread where I modified it, I was getting up to 585fps with sligtly lighter pellets. I've got a new phone and lost all my chair gun data so will have to enter it all in for get the FPE

Yes a 9oz paintball cylinder. You should be able to buy them from anyone unless things have changed! Gun city sell them filled or unfilled and a local shop in Ashburton had them a while back

Are you using a paintball cylinder? I am probably just going to the 88g cylinders so if I need gas I can just go pick one up and I was also reading to get a paintball gas cylinder you need to be a member or an airsoft or paintball club before anyone will sell one.
