But back to the topic
Can you mod an Airtech 3000 with CPVC barrels instead of PETG?

He used crayola markers instead of petg. I think you can use cpvc instead of petg but just try it and if it doesn't work try something else.

I only ask because I'm thinking of trying these and it would suck if the balls got all covered with hairs after a while.

I didn't know that hanks for the head up. I heard that pvc shc 80 is good. But when i tested them out while I was a Lowe's, they just slid right through.

I recently modded a supersoaker, making it shoot darts. With a 12" 9/16 brass barrel with ~2-3" of 17/32 nested in the back held to the gun, the same barrel I use for my Pump Shotgun. (I didn't have a coupler on it, so I had to just hold the barrel on.) It shot straight through my coardboard box and hit the wall about 10 ft. behind it with quite a bit of power. I did the same test, but with a ~6" CPVC barrel, and it only shot through one side of the box.

Noooo 2 inchs is way to short cxwq used 6. But cpvc does work i used it i got the barrels as straight as i could. It gets a good 70 feet.
How thin is the fbr you use? I wouldn't be able to ramrod a dart down CPVC because the fit is too tight. CPVC will work, you just need to have thinner darts for it. But I can guarantee a looser fit for air guns is better.

Edit: Should I just Single my AT3K? or no?

My darts can just fit and not move arounf with out and friction in my kind of pvc
Edit: Should I just Single my AT3K? or no?
How tight are they? Would they require twisting or some force to get them down the barrel?
I would not suggest singling it. I like the AT3K because it's got good range with decent RoF. And you can't really do anything with the left over turret because it wasn't a manual rotate. I would keep it turreted.
