    Hardline Kits...any interest?

    Ive considered doing them on and off for over the last year or two. Only told a handful while I considered whether to pursue it or not.

    Ive attempted to source the parts without much luck, as Id prefer it to be aluminum rather than steel so that it could be anodized

    My other concern is the many different mag set-ups. Id only likely offer 1 size, which would work for some and not others.

    Hardline Kits make Quick-Disconnect either 1) Expensive(as you need the extra fittings) or 2) Difficult to QD.

    With that said, is there any interest in a Hardline Kit?

      AGD had hardlines on the Classic RT. They handle the pressure just fine.

                The ss tubing I use to sell is rated at 10300 psi. The alum is somewhere @ 5000. I use the alum still with my scuba tanks (3000 psi) all the time, and it has no problems.

                        Why not offer the hardline in a slightly longer length than needed. That way ppl can cut it to length themselves using a pipe-cutter.

                        I was thinking a QD system like the old Venom High-Line, where the fitting was a slip fit like a macro fitting, rather than an actual QD.

                          not sure how the hardlines were actually put to gether. but a little insight in a nifty design would be to look at the new style vertical adapters from BT for the tippmann 98's. instead of 1 machined peice, it is now 2 peices with orings on each end of the tube sitting into the 90 degree fittings.
