Shaft4 Barrel Oring

[Norder]

I've noticed that on the Shaft4 barrel back the oring sticks/squishes out between the barrel and the body of the marker, whereas between the tip and barrel back its flush inside.



Is this normal ?

Thanks!

same on mine bud its most likely due to the barrel is one solid peice then whereas the one that sticks out is where the barrel connects to the marker

Thanks! I'm assuming that the oring sticking out is working as a air seal and the one inside the tip is just to stop things unscrewing.

It does the same on my Ego 11 but thought I'd make sure it's not me doing it wrong both times! Lol

yes i believe the marker to barrel is an air seal and the tip to back works so theyre properly alligned for top results

acting as an air seal? not quite sure on that aha

my bad the barrel to marker oring actually stops the barrel vibrating away from the marker

Ie, so all the air is directed down the bolt instead of 'leaking' out

no mate so when you shoot the barrel doesnt come loose from the vibration of the bolt firing
