Anyone have a definitive answer based on experience:

Will SAM cylinders fit/function on Matchguns luftpistolen?

Thank you,

Zollman

Signor Dolina at Matchguns says they are not. He should know.

I thought Marco Dolina was still at SAM (per the SAM website.) Is he now working in Italy at Matchguns?

"Will a Morini cylinder work on a Match Guns AP?"

Unfortunately, no. The Morini cylinder inlet is female, while the MG cylinder inlet is male.

Ok, one more...will a Morini or Matchgun cylinder fit on a SAM M5 or M10?

Here is what I have learned, by physically examining examples of the following compressed air cylinders:

Morini
Matchguns
SAM

None will interchange with each other. They are all unique in design (male/female, thread diameter/thread pitch, etc...)

So it goes....

In speaking with Raffaele at FAS yesterday, he stated that the Morini cylinders will interchange with FAS. You'll have to be careful with this info as well, since FAS has done an upgrade on their cylinder valves. I would think that the "old" FAS cylinders won't work. New ones will.
