They could, but the hex end is also the "plug" end which has the wall. You could always lathe down the hex.
If you found a DURA plug, you can just cut the hex end off because the wall is opposite it. The you would have a nice piston.
hmm thats interesting, I might have to look at some of those.
you could use a sander too to get off the ridges.

Very nice coaxail!
I do like the way you made your barrel removable.
You should in vest in a 3/4 inch modded sprinkler valve to make it easyer to fire.
P.s. that shedule 80 looks awsome!
