Any chance you could mod it with a delta 68 version, Railgun?

They sell them at : http://www.pbn5.com/paintball/paintball.mvc/p=1009465

Then it might not matter that it doesn't extend past the muzzle, especially if you extend the lever by adding on a small piece of metal like a mini-popsicle stick, that might work well.

I thought of modding my Armo zeus with one of these(it's on my table), but I prefer the screw type because I holster and unholster so much in play. There's no sacrificing dependability for speed or efficiency in my book, but I never had any problems with that lever on the PTX.
Just remember the old trick of buying your 12grams in bulk, then you sort them by length and use them longest to shortest. That way at the first sign of a leak you just tighten your lever part of a turn and you know you're good for 30 or so more co2s.

As for me, I just wear two guns! I always wear two pistols because when you're in close contact, even as fast as I can go, the sound of popping out a 12gram is a death warrant. So when I run low on co2, I holster my zeus and draw my TAG8(or P68) and fight my way to where I can hopefully reload both of them. Sometimes it even works

One of my best games of the last few years ended right after I reloaded both my zeus and my P68sc in a building in Hell Survivors' village. I had made what for me was a spectacular move and got behind the other team scoring five quick hits, including two Mercs that were playing that day. I holstered my sheridan and drew my zeus as three Mercenaries came through both doors and a window. I got one but took 'more than a few' hits

One of my (now)friends apologized saying had they known I had a pistol only one of them would have come in on me, of course I notice I don't get that deal any more

So I try to be on their team or the opposite side of the field.
Yup if one is good two is better!

Prien007,
The outer part is a 7/8 that I flattened to make the countersink, the inner is an 18.5mm(bear in mind I found these bits by measuring them up with a 10round tube, smaller bit fits tight inside-larger bit same as the outside diameter of the tube).
The big trick is the spring. The springs in these are much smaller diameter than the tube so they will porpoise out of the loading port(not good!).
I work the springs slowly by hand until they are the diameter of the inside of the tube then they won't come out.
Just to make sure, when I push the mag follower back I cover the port by sliding my fingers along the top rail like this:

Belt and suspenders!
