I am handy enough with a drill and tap. I should have a 1/8NPT size tap around too. However I would like to mill out a flat section on the bottom of the marker, around the 1/8NPT hole, to mate better with the flow through grip and I have no idea how to do that. Drilling dead center on the bottom of the marker would be a challenge too.

Wait a 1/8NPT fitting is about 1/4" (eyeballed) across right? They are the standard hosing for paintball markers? I just noticed that PPS carries both 1/4 and 1/8 NPT. I also noticed that they have a male to female 1/8NPT extension. That would give me the clearance I need to mount my flow through grip to my 90 degree fitting that is connected to my ASA adapter.

About PPS. I would love to order some stuff from them, including ball detents/magic fingers, but cost of shipping from them to Canada is criminal! How can they get away with charging $24 USD for shipping of a magic fingers?

Thanks,
David
PPS can charge whatever they want for shipping since they're the only ones who carry the parts.

1/4 NPT and 1/8 NPT are vastly different threads. Yes, the 1/8 NPT is what paintball fittings usually are, and they're roughly 1/4" in diameter.

Got a picture of the setup?
