You can add an external tank by simply putting an air hose coupling on the outside of the case and connecting it to the piston assembly.
As far as I know, you need the air to be released halfway between the outer and inner barrels - that's just an integral part of that barrel design.
Easier to pressurize? You could do the external tank mod mentioned above (like Jon's Beast) and fill it with a compressor between wars. The size of the tank is arbitrary within reason.

The fact that the point of release for the air burst is halfway between the outer and inner barrels is just a matter of efficiency. It would be far too complicated and inneffecient to have the nozzle move back and forth from one barrel to the other each shot, likewise confining the nozzle to one "ring" of barrels would halve the number of shots you can have. This is just a mechanically (though not very aerodynamically) efficient solution to those two problems.

Where are those pics of the 3-d model of the RF20/Wildfire innards?

So, you got to the spring? How'd you do it? I did the bike tube mod, so my PC's air bladder probably has enough pressure to push a fairly stiff spring. I just couldn't get to the spring, or else I would have already replaced it.Yes, if you could band or do a spring replacement on the piston mechanism it would increase the effective pressure reaching the dart. The difficulty lies in getting the band/spring in a position to do the job. Spoon tried the former and I tried the latter on the PC piston and as far as I know, neither of us was entirely successful.
