Wouldn't recommend PVC for use with CO2 and Tyre inflator.

The inflator shoots un-regged co2, and with 12, 16 or 8 gram cart.s extra liquid co2 comes out.

If the design gets jammed, it could become pressured with sustained co2 or even some liquid co2 (added volume), besides the cold accompanied with the co2.

For BB's only a small chamber is needed/ beneficial, so even a more expensive brass design would be economical (IMO).

BTW, noticed These 1000 PSI Ball valves Which could be usefull for loading the BB chamber from a larger mag while keeping the firing mag volume lower.
OR for using a seperate hose (to same tank) and triggering a much larger barreled Burst-disc mounted below the BBMG barrel.

I tried going down this road but what disappointed by the performance, this is what prompted me to get a paintball tank. I now also have me a pressure washer handle, watch this space :D

If this is what the suppressor contemplation was for, don't bother ;)
