Anti-Double feed

if your using bad paint your twice as likely to get a break 
Correct me if I'm wrong but I didn't think they had them, if its a real problem tip the barrel up a little when you pump, that way the first ball will be in the way and not let the second in.
very, very occasionly I would get a double feed. Just pumping it normally, always sempt to happen in the most awkward situations.
Nelson guns rely on the tightness of the barrel to act as a detent. The barrels on Nelson guns are very tight, on my phantom I can sit a ball on the end of the barrel like an egg cup, the bore of the barrel is smaller than a paintball.
On my tracer or phantom if I hold the pump back and drop a ball down the feedneck it won't roll forward at all and the ball will only move forward when the pump goes forward and pushes it into the barrel so it can't double feed.
Try it on yours
If the ball rolls down into the barrel then it's probably the paint you are using being a bit too small, just try another brand.
If it doesn't roll down the barrel then I'm afraid that you are forgetting when you've pumped the gun and when you haven't. If you pump the gun and don't fire then the ball will still be in the mouth of the barrel. If you then pump it again another ball will drop into the breach, the bolt will push both forward giving you two balls in the barrel when you fire.
