I have to recommend a CO2 setup, one could probably be had for around $40, including a regulator.

I have a few spares that I could use, but then it's more electronics that I have no clue how to use.

I heard on another thread that it lasted like 2k rounds. That is not a lot at all...

Basically, you'd need to get a little creative.
You'd need
This fitting,
this reg, and maybe
this remote line
Gosh, that's more than I thought... Then you need a tank... Even air tanks are
somewhat reasonable. and can be larger. Or just go with
CO2
Hell, I might just buy that 62 cu in tank myself...
EDIT:
This fitting or
this one might be better.
I forget if this is a BBMG, but if so, this is
only like $12, or
$20 with a 20oz tank.
Should be good enough.
Wow, I feel like jack now, with all the links...

I can't find anything cheaper easily. I should convert my lathe to CNC and start making them.

Thats a little too much for me... but don't some of those tanks you linked come with regs? Thats what it said in the title but I don't know enough about paintball and stuff.

They regulate the ~3000 PSI in the tank down to around 800-900 PSI.
Still a little much for playing airsoft.
You might try these, though
