Ah come on. This guy posts a gun, and we mess his thread up with talk about grammar, weed and prostitutes...
I think you will find the most improvement in performance by shortening that piston. A piston as long as its diameter is long enough.
On really tight fitting pistons you could go even twice as short, but the shorter it is the larger the possibility of tumbling and jamming, so just go with a length as long as the diameter.

I think Casino meant to say he disliked the feet shown in the picture...?

Yes he just screwed the blowgun into it.
They are pretty much the same thing but a bashing has male larger threads and female smaller threads inside it.
I visit occasionally to make unrelated posts.

Nice gun. Who doesn't like a nice reliable coax?
Call me a photo whore but you need to work on that piston photo
(That wasn't the point of this post at all...)
