I'm in need of a part for a prototype gun me and a friend are working on. Click here (http://www.geocities.com/thourne.rm/mini14p-1.jpg) for a picture. We are using this (http://rap4.com/paintball/os/disposable-adapter-p-239.html) 12g adapter installed in the stock and it works well for the situation we're using it for, but unfortunately all pressure needs to be dumped before switching 12g's. If you don't you blow the o-ring every time you change 12g's. This makes it hard to do in a game. It's hooked to a Phantom and I get 80+ shots in the summertime, but it takes around 90-110+ shots to get all the pressure out. What I'm looking for is something that will screw into the valve body of the Phantom to let me dump all the air in the system instantly and still let me run microline. I've only got about 2-3 inches of microline exposed to add something of this sort. Bear in mind whatever I add ideally needs to be easy to install, dump quickly, not blow its seals, or cause leaks (12g's suck when something leaks). It also has to be rated to hold CO2 type pressures (at the least 1500 psi, but I'd really like 1800 psi). Links would be awesome - thanks ahead of time for any searching you may do for me!

i'm actually looking for something exactly like that for my remote line (hpa).

i think that 1/8" NPT or 10/32-threaded miniature 3-way ball valve would do the trick, but haven't been able to find one with the limited searching i've done so far... pls let me know if you find one.

[edit] found one, but not where/how to buy tham yet...

i'd also suggest putting a muffler on the exhaust port - like these:
