Paintball Guns: Smart Parts
built 178 days ago
Paintball guns are comprised of three main parts: markers, hoppers/loaders, and propellant. The propellant forces the ball through the marker using carbon dioxide or high pressure air (nitrogen). The hopper holds many paintballs at once and the loader drops them down into the marker, one at a time.

A paintball bolt is the part of a paintball gun that moves the ball forward into the chamber, seals off the chamber and then releases compressed gas to propel the paintball down the barrel. With a classic bolt, the air comes out of the bolt through a large hole and propels the ball forward. Venturi bolts were designed to dissipate the air and allow lots of little blasts of air to hit the ball.
