      I think I have one. Toss me an address and I'll send it to you. No clue if it works or not but it was in a gear lot.
      I could have sworn I had something important to put here...

            Its been a while since I maintained a rental fleet that included CMI markers but I do not remember there being anything special. I have some LAPCO power tubes I'll find them and get some measurements.

              Though I was thinking around today and took a look, so the marker has a spring adjustment on the bolt , consequently that adjustment moves the brass tube tha fits the powertube inside and even with the adjustment all the way fowars the powertube only need about 1.75 inches to fit and work, i think so im no expert on paintball stuff and this my first pump if anybody can lead me in i would be very thankfull, so yeah im thinking about of getting a cheapo used i think a #6 nelson powertube to see if it work , if so that way i didn't waste 20 bucks on a new one
