    Brass Eagle Raptor left hand vasa threads!?

    I have a raptor that I’m working on making a pumper. It’s grinding to a standstill as I need to replace the VASA but the threads that go into the body are left handed. Does anyone have any info on where I could source one?

    I want a VASA to use vertical bottles directly off it, so an air hose fitting wouldn’t help me.

    I thought I came across one when I started this months ago but didn’t buy it because I figured I’d be able to find it again easily. That is not the case.

    I’m also open to ideas on how to fabricate something. I’ll add, I was trying to remove the air line from the vasa but it’s seized and I’m pretty sure I’ve destroyed it.

    Luckily the BE Avenger had the same threads into the body, and a lot of those were made and even had a bit of aftermarket support. So a left had threaded aftermarket BE Avenger vertical ASA will also fit on your Raptor, and be considerably lighter than the big steel stock one. They're long since out of production though, but if you know where to look....
