Taprite regulator; right site connection to co2 removable?

[cbehr]

Is the right side of this regulator threaded that I can remove? I'm not talking about just the nut on the end, I mean the entire arm that connects to the body of the regulator. I know a lot of regulators this is threaded but I can't see from this picture.

I want to remove the standard c02 connector and connect the regulatorto a UFA for a paintball tank.

Anything that goes into the regulator body is going to be threaded, including the tank coupler. They sell ganged primaries using the same body. Be prepared to deal with thread cement...

Cheers!

I used a union to connect my paint ball canisters to the CO2 regulator (http://www.williamsbrewing.com/REGULATOR-PAINTBALL-ADAPTER-P3250.aspx). I use this union.

I was going to use a paintball adapter but this is going in a tiny cooler so I wanted to try and save a few inches by doing something like this.

I was gonna post the same thing. If there are no flats on the CGA nut/nipple (some have them and some don't) you might have to use a big old pipe wrench, and either way you're really going to have to torque the crap out of it. Mount the reg in a vice to make things easier. Make sure you have some PTFE tape for the new fitting.
