ABSTRACT:
A paintball gun system comprises a gun body and a propellant tank interconnected by a quick-change coupling. The quick-change coupling partially defines a fluid pathway between the tank and the gun body in that it is included in a sequence of components from the tank to a pneumatic circuit in the paintball gun body. The quick-change coupling includes a gun-side fitting and a tank-side fitting. The gun-side fitting is in communication with the gun body at one end and terminates in an opposite open-end configured for sealed engagement of the tank-side fitting. The tank-side fitting being is in communication with the tank and has an opposite open end for sealed engagement of the gun-side fitting. Each fitting has complementary interlocking contours.
