IF you can charge it to at least 110-120 psi initially, it wont matter what nozzle you have, since while it's being charged the nozzle will most likely be closed. Once the load "pops", you can open the nozzle, let air out, then go. We actually run with the auto nozzle, but pull the end off at the door, making it a smooth bore before entering.
Awsome idea guys and great video!

Is that a 100 psi automatic nozzle? Seems like kinks would be a big problem with low pressure combos or smoothbores.

This is 1-3/4. It will work with either though. It will also work with 2-1/2 or 3".

The term come from Maximum Use Tools/Tactics.
Also this as a precon is a hybrid of wildlnd concepts used on a structural engine. hence not a purebreed idea, aka A MUTT.
