the "bolt" the bit that moves forward to push the ball into the barrel to shoot the ball out it moves forward pretty slowly with a little bit of air behind it ( thats why you can put your finger in there and it bounces off and goes back to start postion so to speak) to push the ball to the forward and then when it reaches a certain point it then releases another volume of air to chuck the ball out the barrel at speed if you see what i mean
You da boss! *bows down*

Eyes prevent the marker from fireing unless there is a paintball in the breech, they prevent chops and dry-fires if you play with an electronic marker they usually come as standard

if youve got a hopper that is as fast or faster then not very often if it does then you need to clean the breach and barrel and the bolt

Hard to say .... Will happen more if you have a gravity fed ( have to shake it to feed the balls )hopper so reccomebd a force fed / electronic ( same thing) sorry if I sound like I'm patronising you lol but don't know what you know and don't know :)

If you chop a ball basically the bolt clips half of a ball off and paint comes out of the barrel at the sane time coating the barrel in paint which means if the next ball isn't chopped the accuracy will be very bad and will fly anyway but striaght! Which is annoying

But seriously save money and get the GOG envy you won't regret it it doesn't chop
