Toy Principle:

          This toy deals with the concepts of pressure and work.  The Pellet is projected from the gun using the work of the stored pressure in the gun.  

 

 

How it Works:

          The concept of the pump shot is rather simple in operation.  A single paintball can be loaded into the chamber at the middle of the gun.  The pressure is built up in the gun by the quick movement of the two handles sliding together.  Once the pressure reaches a certain level by the contraction of the space in the chamber, the ball is projected from the gun by the releasing of a gasket at the front of the gun.  The gasket is a rubber ring whose center hole is slightly smaller than the diameter of the paintball.  This allows for the pressure to build up to a certain point with the chamber being sealed for the time.
