Ok so i have an automag classic 68 with a high pressure system!?!?! new trigger, grip and some new o rings i think. Umm today i was playing for a while and the Tube (was plastic) exploded on my arm and Co2 went everywhere. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction as to getting Steel braided tubes and elbows. 2 of them =) thank you very much guys!

Pretty much any internet or physical store that sells paintball stuff besides possibly walmart will ahve hoses. You're gonna want a coulpe elbows and some teflon tape too.Comment

Teflon tape.... well you could use that, but after removing the hose you end up with small teflon shreds that should be cleaned out of the threads. Better use locktite (not the red stuff!) See the locktite topic in the stickies on what to use.
I use #243 blue for securing screws and also for air hose sealant. Even though it is not intended for that use, it works great and all the connections i made so far were leak-free. And another benefit is that it looks much cleaner than having teflon tape everywhere on your airline threads. Just remember to give the locktite atleast 30 minutes to cure before airing up your marker.
Keep in mind that # 243 does not cure to ideal strength when applied to stainless steel threads (like the mag valves except the xvalve)Comment

Like mkmckinley said, you can get them at pretty much any paintball shop, local or internet. Here's the actionvillage link, probably one of the lowest prices you will find..
