i was just out in the garage giving the old mantle a good going over -  
looking to see how i'll want it all to fit together in the end with the new 
one.  while looking, i put the marker in the turret to check further on the fit 
of  things, and took notice that the relocated air line (moved from the 
bottom of  the gun to the side) will still be sticking out too far from the gun 
and push  past the lid of the turret.
 
what i am wondering is - can i use a regular brass elbow fitting from a  
automotive store (if the threads all match)? can i just use teflon tape, or 
does  it need to have O-rings? or some special elbow fitting i should check at 
the  local wanna-be paint ball / scuba shop?
 
I do know i'll be going for a shorter air line that the one that came with  
the gun as well as this one currently reaches the rear of the gun (will 
have to  check it all out again, but with the air tank in the turret get to get 
a better  idea of a hose length and placement). i just mention this in case 
they make a  shorter air line with a elbow on it
