Playing with some bits I had, 1/8" QEV, trigger valve and 1/2" NPT coupler capped one end and 1/8" male thread welded to it to connect to QEV. 1/2" coupler is to screw in chamber.

Managed to Tig weld a piece of 1/8" thread to the barrel without destroying it
It's somewhat straight but I won't be using it in the Olympics so I think it will work.
