Is it leaking at the ends? I assume it is, if it's leaking in the middle you have some weird tubing... Anyway, because the tubing connections on the Titan have hosebarbs you can make a good tight connection by tightening a small hoseclamp down on it. I didn't measure the tubing on my Titan when I opened it up since I was just doing a pump plug, but it looks like about 1/4"

Actually, I put the pump underneath the handles. I used the piece of vinyl tubing for the gauge to extend it. Can you tell me where to get like a 12" peice of strong vinyl tubing?

Home Depot, Ace hardware, True Value hardware, etc. Ask them for vinyl tubing, they sell it by the foot. Good luck with your mod, dude.

Vinyl tubing can also be found at pet stores. I noticed that the RF20 vinyl tubing works great with the titan.

1/4" is actually a little tight. If you could get something slightly bigger that would work awesome. Right now I am actually integrating a Titan's airtank into the front gun of the Longshot.

If it is leaking at the ends, the tubing is a little big or not on all the way.

Damn, I was going to do that.
Anyway back on topic. Menards also has a HUGE selection of vinyl tubing.

Looks good
You could saw off the rear end of the housing where the pump used to be and add a folding stock.

How would i go about making a folding stock?

Hey, that thing looks pretty good, and comfortable to shoot and prime (pump in the same place as the newer version SM 1500s).

Why you would want/ need a folding stock is beyond me, except if you want to try to make it look a little more like some firearm, which is fine. But it looks good enough to use as is, very practical.

Glad to see you found tubing that works. I tried aquarium air line tubing, and it may have been a bad batch, or just the characteristic of that kind of tubing, but it popped after only 5-6 pumps. REALLY loud, too.

Thanks pineapple. I got the vinyl tubing from Ace/Petes hardware for about .20 cents.
