Here is my cheap and easy counter preasure bottle filler that I use to fill bottles from a keg. I fiddled with various hardware and taps and stuff to build a knockoff beer gun but found it far too fiddly and a mission to fill bottles quick and easy.

Its a picnic tap with a piece of hose that fits into the tap to the bottom of the bottle. The tap and hose is sealed off with a #2 stopper. I inserted a medical needle trough the stopper to release the pressure out of the bottle when filling.

To fill the bottle insert the tube to the bottom of the bottle and open the picnic tap completely, regulate the flow by closing or opening the needle opening with my thumb.

When the bottle is filled close the picnic tap and release all the pressure in the bottle, a little beer or foam will escape out of the bottle trough the needle and will stop when all the pressure in the bottle is released.

Remove the filler hose to create head space and squirt a little beer on top to create enough foam to fill the bottle neck to the top with foam ensuring that there is no oxygen in the bottle. Put the cap on top off the foam and seal immediately.
sorry about the vid that on its side I took it with my phone.
