This is probably too simple to post, but here it is anyway. Start with a compressed air trigger-activated blow gun (Amazon) and a ball-lock-post-to-NPT adaptor (Amazon):

and screw them together:

Voila! A trigger activated CO2 blower for flushing air out before bottling.
 
Cool idea. I assume that 24" was the shortest length available? Have you found it to be a bit unwieldy? I like the idea for growler fills, where you just know the person you filled for is going to let it sit a couple days, despite warnings. Much easier than assembling a beer gun for a one-off growler fill.
 
There were shorter ones, but I wanted to make sure I could get to the bottom of liter bottles. It might turn out to be unwieldy -- haven't used it yet!
