<p>Edit: 3/27: &nbsp;Newer version added for better air seal.</p><p>Japanese gas blowback airsoft guns require use of duster gas, or HFC152a, for lower pressure. Adapters are hard to find, so make your own! &nbsp;Works for Inland and Dust-off brand canisters.&nbsp;</p><p>To assemble, simply print the adapter, cut a desired length of the tubes that are included with the cans, then insert the tube into this adapter, shown in the photos. &nbsp;You will need to remove the original trigger off the duster can, exposing the white stem. &nbsp;The adapter fits on top securely. &nbsp;Super glue can be handy for any minute leaks. &nbsp;Just dab some onto the base and the straw prior to fitting them together and to the can nozzle.</p><p>PLA, PC, or ASA is recommended, in order to get good air seal. &nbsp;PETG surprisingly has poor layer adhesion compared to PLA and PC, so the gas will escape between layers &nbsp;with PETG. &nbsp;The liquid gas will rapidly freeze the adapter, so PC is recommended for better flexibility. &nbsp;A .25 nozzle may offer better dimensional printing, but 0.4 is acceptable as well. &nbsp;Scaling may be required for a snug, leak-free fit.</p><p>Duster gas, while low pressure and safer for the environment, is still unpleasant to get blasted in the face with, so take extreme care when making your adapter.</p>
