I don't have that much modding experience so maybe you guys have seen something that might work.

You guys have to think of the whole picture here. A heavy thing on your back or bigger will just slow you down and be unpractical. If you seriously need an air comressor for your RF20 to stay alive in a war, then you need to get some skill or you're using the wrong blaster.

Coolness >>>> PracticalityI wouldnt bother. You wont find anything small enough. Even somthing small enough to fit on your back wouldnt be good.

I'm not looking for the most practical gun to use in a war. I could care less if it ever sees action other than firing it at home. I'm more looking to find out how to do it.
I remember seeing a picture guy with a powerclip hooked up to something like a backpack in a thread where airsoft guys were dissing nerf, but I can't find it.
I found a compressor, but would it be better to fill a tank and use that or plug the gun directly into the compressor?

As far as portability goes, the only thing I can think of is pairing a small 12 volt automotive air compressor with a homebrew battery pack. It's a flat out guess, but I think 8 NiMH "D" cells in series would be able to deliver enough current to run one of those things. I can't find any specs for the compressors at the moment to confirm.
Edit: Just found this one which should be easier and save you some money.

On a side note, that might not be a bad thing for bases (for clans that use them). Get a compressor, plug it in someplace, and anyone in the base could use it. Hmm....

That would be way more practical than what Quasar wants to do. And he doesn't sound like the kind of person who would spend 50 bucks on a possibly impossible project.

I also think that a schrader valve would do a pc wonders. You could pump, or use an air tank/compressor. OR, even connect two pumps for SUPER DOUBLE MEGATON PUMPING ACTION!
And, if you would like some help, quasar, with some sort of tank, let me know... I'm pretty good with compressed air.

i'm doing this to one of my PC's, you do NOT need to leave the stock airtank in, you just run the BPAT's hose to the trigger valve, so that it replaces the stock airtank
EDIT: This is not an original idea, i'm just adapting it to a larger airtank at a medium PSI

I believe that a typical air mattress holds at max 10 psi (probably closer to 4-6). A PVC airtank would need anywhere from 50-120 psi in order to make a pc cycle. I realize that these are just guesses, but nerf darts seem to like high pressure low volume tanks, since the darts have little mass.
So I don't think that a matress compressor would be powerful enough... but that would be nice!

*EDIT* Schveet idea devious!

Blink, is there a link you could provide?What about that new compressor from Canadian Tire. It "Says" it can inflate an air matress in under 2 min. It only costs 30$ and comes with 2 compressors and a docking station to re-charge it?

Murphy: All right, get your stupid fucking rope.
Do you mean with an integration or what? Because size doesn't have anything to do with performance...-NerfMonkey

The reason I could not find the link was because the item was so new it was not on there site yet. The name of the item is called "Airman Inflation Station." Try looking it up in google.
Edit:
Heres the link:
