It is an expensive bolt that has a spring that gives with the bolt closes on a misfed ball. Instead of chopping it, the bolt face just stayes on the ball while the ram compresses the spring instead of the ball.

The max force on the ball is the amount of spring compression force.

Don't remember the name but they have a website with a good illustration of how it works. Seems like a valid concept IF the travel of the bolt is MORE than one diameter of a paintball.

But unless you use very thin walled paint that is designed to break easily, you CAN lower the pressure of the ram and thus the force of the bolt on a jammed ball and NOT chop. It will just jam. That is FREE..

The stock front and inline regs are INTERNALLY adjustable. Let us know if you need some help doing it.

Have a set of replacement pneumatic hoses ready when you do it..
