Dude, this is a slowish forum, give it a day and see how you go

Now, what's the purpose of the slide valve? Usually you'd use it on the pilot instead. Also unless you've put an equalisation hole in the diaphragm of the QEV, it'll just leak out into the barrel.

I was going to use the slide valve as a safety for the gun and ok sorry i didnt know

[isnotaustin]

so does anyone know for sure this setup will work?

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

I'm not sure it would.

That's quite a big pilot area you have there, I don't know if the pop-off's brief "blip" will be enough to fire the QEV.

Why don't you have the trigger feed into the chamber instead?

Good point so i remove the pressure washer trigger and put it were the slide valve would be ?

[isnotaustin]

So like this? Im just trying to get the idea even though this looks ugly

[isnotaustin]

Ok i swear i got it right this time... Did i? Becuase i saw this working in a youtube video i just made a few arrangements

[jackssmirkingrevenge]

This one is more efficient than this one

In your second diagram, the pressure washer is still trying to fill the pilot directly while the pop-off is trying to empty it. Technically this happens in the first one as well, but you're feeding mainly into the chamber, not the pilot.

So both will work correct? Just one is more effifient? Becuase id like the trigger to be more gun like than just a bunch of pipes that can shoot

Your second diagram is essentially this, and that certainly worked

[isnotaustin]

Ok im starting to get the idea thanks for the help , next time i post ill either need help or have it working xD

[isnotaustin]

Oh one more question ... How do you propose i connect the hpa tank to the gun since paintball setups do not use npt threading? My best guess was going to be cutting the remote line and finding a regular npt brass barbed tube connector thing with those hose clamps ... Would that work ok?

This has 1/8" NPT fittings on each end.

This could connect to your tank, and to the remote line:

Alternatively, you can buy 1/8" NPT fittings to connect a remote line normally:

please do not use hose clamps with HPA... what pressure did you plan on running at?

[isnotaustin]

all of this will be below 200 psi and thanks for the links
