I have a Nova Freedom with a broken Small Piston Head and Air Venturi will not sell me one. Currently running an ad in the classifieds, but if I can't find one, I would like to convert this over to run from a bottle. I don't want to put a bunch of money into this, so the most simple and least expensive way to get this to work is what I am looking for.

No need for a plenum or an adjustable regulator, just a safe interface for a thread on bottle. Plan to shorten the small diameter Air Chamber Extension Tube under the barrel to allow clearance for the bottle.

I sent a message to darkcharisma about options but they have not been on the sight since July, thus no response.

Easier said than done. Good luck.

Yea, it is looking like that. Too bad the importer / marketer of the flawed product won't sell parts for it. That can't be more than a $15 part. I might just braze the broken part back on so it can hold the final stage 0-Ring in place and put it back together with a non functioning pump, filling with my compressor to get a few dozen shots perhaps per fill. It is a very accurate rifle so I am not too keen to sell it for parts......yet.

There is a guy on Youtube that simply chopped the small air chamber down, removed all the pump parts, chopped the stock up and threaded on a bottle with some brass fittings and it worked well for him. If I can find the right fittings made of the correct pressure rated stainless steel, his were brass, I would be happy with that setup.
