    The old shoebox Shockers came with 8mm fittings, that might be one of them.

      I've no idea the psi rating but I'm betting old Shocker as well. They operated on/around 180 psi. The hose material wasn't very substantial and was quite flexible, not stiff or brittle at all.

        There was something marketed by G-force as Megaline, I think it was called, back in the early 00's? Bigger than macroline, which was pretty new to paintball at that point.

          Shoebox shocker was my first thought as well.

          But remember, those were "very efficient" (from the manual) at 500 whole shots off a 68/45

              Can you imagine draining a tank with a hopper and 2 pods.

              What barbarians

              All you guys had terrible efficiency because you used plain old air. You need to mix your HPA with hi-test CO2.
              But seriously if you didn’t know, this was an actual thing for shoeboxes.

                So I have heard about this but never experienced it in the 00s. I have so many questions haha. How did this actually get filled? Seems like most regs wouldn’t back feed so it had to get in through the fill nipple? Second at what point does CO2 liquify when it’s mixed with HPA? I assume if you were getting more shots per fill that the CO2 had to liquify, but then part of my brain assumes the HPA would be used up before the CO2 could evaporate… but then it wouldn’t really give you a whole lot more shots.
            Working...
