FX Quick Connector

I'm trying to fill my new FX Impact M4 Sniper. The parts list includes a dust cap and a quick disconnect female. I didn't receive either of these parts.

Did FX stop including these items with the new M4's?

My compressor disconnect is about 19mm diameter but the recess in the gun is only about 17mm.

What connectors are you guys using to fill your Impact M4?

Thanks

I found a work around and I'm glad that I did. I can take off the trigger guard and then have plenty of access to the male disconnect fitting. All four of the trigger guard's screws were loose out of the box which is why I'm glad I checked them. Now I'll have to go over the whole gun to see if everything is tight - bummer for such an expensive gun.

I'm using a cheap compressor to fill with and it worked well. It can also work off a car battery and comes with lots of extra filters. 12 minutes to go from 117-250 bar without a hitch. Still got my fingers crossed though.

Most of us FX owners have extended female fosters due to the deeply set male foster on FX guns. Here's an example;

I picked up this connector to make filling the tank easier. I'm sure it will but I've run into another problem getting things hooked up.

This is my fill hose setup. The quick connector has a male threaded fitting on the end. When I remove my current quick disconnect I have another male threaded fitting to attach to which isn't going to work.

Does anyone know of a sleeve with the right threads on the ends? Has anyone hooked up this quick connector to a filter like this and how did you do it?

Thanks

You need an extended female qd with FEMALE threads OR a 1/8" female to female connector. One shown below is npt but you might need bsp

Thanks for that Gerry.

I think this is the correct one, though, also made by Manloney - NPT to BSPP.

This one come with washers and looks identical... I just ordered one.

Thanks for the help.
