I'm not certain you can force carb bottles. If you have a stainless steel conical fermenter you can carb in that prior to bottling straight from the fermenter.

You can carb in a keg and buy a device usually called a beer gun to bottle from the keg.
Don't let the bastards cheer you up.

I've seen carbonation caps for PET bottles. I don't think I've seen anything for glass though.
