IX. A Brief Description of the workings of the
Series 5 and 6.
A cutaway of a Series 5 Body with Sear Engaged This is the marker cocked with a ball in the chamber.
When you pull the trigger a sear is lowered which releases a hammer (inside the
bottom tube of the marker). This hammer is under spring pressure (you load a
spring when you pull back the cocking rod or pump the marker). The hammer
strikes a valve, which allows gas to flow through the valve, up through the bolt,
and down the barrel, propelling a ball (if loaded) out of the barrel.
Series 5 Cutaway Sear disengaged, ball being propelled out of the barrel.
You must then manually cock this marker. With your finger off the trigger, grasp
the handle under the barrel and move it back toward the rear of the marker.
Pulling the pump rearward forces the pump arm back. The pump arm is attached
to the back block, which moves the bolt and the cocking rod back as well. The
bolt, when it clears the chamber, allows another paintball to fall into the chamber
of the marker.
