Just Bought A Tac One

[LONEWOLFOO1]

I just bought a tac one and i notice that you need a air line from the x valve to the front of the gun so can you guys post pics of what you done to your tac one. i am looking to put a quick disconnect so i can pull the gun apart. it should be easier to do.

get a piece of braided steel hose and some shrink shielding to cover it

[automikey]

Thanks

Well, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

You'll need a Stainless Steel AGD Quick Disconnect (don't get chrome), two Kapp swivel fittings, shrink wrap (electronics store), a 4 1/2" (end-to-end) braided hose, and yellow teflon tape (yellow is for air lines and works much better than the white).

It would be hard to do without the swivel fittings.

Post photos when you're done, but not if it looks better than mine.

Loctite 545 is much better than any sort of teflon tape.

[automikey]

Hmmm

This seems to be something that is very person-specific, as some people use Loctite and all it does is leak and then gum up the threads and internals (I've cleaned it out of valve interiors) while others use it and it works everytime. If Loctite works for you, then you are probably the other type of person who cannot go near Teflon tape without shredding it to bits and blowing strands of it through your marker. I use yellow teflon tape for air fittings and I can assemble or remove any fitting in under 30 seconds with no mess. No waiting or leaks either. But I know lots of people like the Loctite.

I think it comes down to proper use of the materials and careful installation.

any suggestions on a good tank? i'm just getting back into the game after a couple years and not really sure what to look for, or where to look for it.

I like that setup, but 4.5" SS hose doesnt seem to be a very easy to find size. I suppose if I knew where to look it would be alot easier to find Any suggestions?

hoses

You just need to keep looking. I need some hoses that are exactly 4-3/8" from end-to-end for some micromags, I wonder if someone out there makes custom hoses?

Ask Tunaman if he has any.

I'm not positive, but I think a 4" hose is actually 4.5" end to end. If you can, the best bet is to go to a local shop and measure the piece against your marker.
