Imagine the gunpower stealth who used the same idea, Same principle of letting a shot of air out of the bottle when the hammer hits the bottle valve.. But its way to big for the skans, The r32 uses the standard bottle we know today but the original valve is also attached to the front of it. ie rapid bottle connected to skan valve then screw to rifle..

    The OP has the bottle, luckily (and if it's as unique as that then worth a few quid by itself).
    Just not the adaptor, magazine or magazine mounting cylinder.

    From what you say then an off the shelf adaptor isn't going to happen
    Good deals with these members

    Correct,,, You need the Skan fill adapter,
    Any competent machinist can make one with the right thread cutter but the op has nothing to send to copy hence why i offered one of mine through pm.. Col
