That is a loaded question.
I can supply them with adapters for $115 shipped. That is a male and a female ready to screw onto a standard LP scuba hose.

Light monkey carries exactly what you are doing in a smaller & lighter package.
QC-6 Connectors (lightmonkey.us)
If the female side is going to a manifold you won't need any NPT to scuba adapters at all. If the female side is going to a BOV you will need an adapter one way or another.
SS NPT fittings are good for "one" and pretty much only one attachment to whatever. If you connect and disconnect them more than once or twice they will gall and your fitting is ruined. So don't think you can mix match and change your mind on these 1/4" NPT adapter to QC6 variations. You get one, maybe two, tries.
yes TeflonDo you use Teflon tape or other sealants when connecting Swagelok and NPT adapters to build your own connectors?
There shouldn't be any NPT adapaters. Just buy the correct fittings for the application.Do you use Teflon tape or other sealants when connecting Swagelok and NPT adapters to build your own connectors?
Your last photo seems to show 9/16" M at each end of your constructed connector.This is what they look like with adapters installed. View attachment 647933
An LP hose?Your last photo seems to show 9/16" M at each end of your constructed connector.
What am I missing in understanding how to set this up without yet another adapter that gets me to 3/8"M?
Never mind. Brain fartAn LP hose?
Depending on the MAV you may also be able to unscrew the bottom port. E.g on the Golem MAV the metal insert is already the appropriate size.Never mind. Brain fart
