I am surprised that my $2,000 Impact comes with such a cheap plastic fill nipple that is hard for my fingers to pull on and off...and I can't seem to find an aftermarket replacement.
Have any of you replaced it?

On ebay or amazon, try looking for paintball foster nipple protectors....quite a few nice machined/aluminum options with magnets or bearings/o'rings.

Seems my Mk3 came with a "slightly..." longer than normal fill disconnect . It was still a fingernail grab, but it was longer than the one that I have.
Then comes the Ghost. A nicely long...disconnect fitting came with that gun. But...it "still" needs a female Foster fitting adapter ! Am I the only one that thinks that quick disconnects should have the Foster fitting end on the hse end, and not have to spend another $10 to $15 on another...fitting ?

Totally agree with the two mags,and the fill adapter, the case on the 35 cal impact that it comes with is a piece of junk to

Edgun Lelyas & Matadors do - but their mags are simplistic and cheaper in price to begin with. There are others that include multiple mags too but the Edguns come to mind first.
[Edit: the Leshiy 2's also come with two mags...]

Thanks for the reply. I had no idea who may have.
I would not base a buying decision on getting an extra mag, but it is a nice touch.

I still haven’t figured out if you are referring to the cover for the male foster fitting or a female foster fitting for your fill source 
. Seems both parts have been referenced by members.

True, if OP is complaining about the little black plastic fill port cover, then this is his answer here:I still haven’t figured out if you are referring to the cover for the male foster fitting or a female foster fitting for your fill source
