WHY...WHY...?
Replace the threaded end and machine the "Foster" fitting shape on the end of your probe !!!!!!!!
That way, folks don't need to spend, MORE...money on crappy adapters (and seals) that have...a Foster...fitting shape machined onto...it..
Also, a smaller feed hole to help slow the air entry into the cylinder. This helps from blasting a full load of high pressure air into the gun, all at once.
The Edguns have a (as I recall) about a .03" dia hole in their fill probes. That's all that's required.
In any case, great you are doing this work.

Mike, im going to do it both ways. Everybody dont have a foster. I cant imagine why not.. as far as the hole, the smaller the hotter the air. Never seen a valve that couldn't regulate air input... thanks. Everything is ready but only 2 or 3 requesting one. Really not worth tooling up for it to be made. I will make a few but then put it away for good. I was shutting down the lathe to make these but not for 3.. lol

Hmm, seems the current, PCP world is is built off of the Foster design air inlet. The AP16 sure is.
It's better to slow the air volume/pressure, before it gets to the guns cylinder. Just a thought.
But if you aren't going to be making more, the point is moot anyway.
I thought I understood that you were going to make some US made (copies) AP16 ?

And you would be correct. But there are legal hurdles to cross before actually making the whole gun. We are going to make the probes, threaded and foster... the gun is future but will put QC on bottom of cylinder ahead of guard.

Not at this time. I won't tool up for less than 100pcs. I have 200 probes with seals. I will be finished with them in about 1 week. 100 of each type. Wish there was a way to post just Ataman parts I'm making but I'm not savy in that area

That's easy. In the "Classifieds", just click on the red "Post Thread" box. Give your thread a title. Then describe your items and give a price. If too many to list, just invite inquiries via PM or your email.
You can also post a thread in Classifieds, asking how many folks would want your creations.
