Publication number: 20140137847Abstract: A projectile launcher capable of optionally repositioning the bolt to a predefined position using a bolt carrier is disclosed. The launcher, in one aspect, includes a bolt, a striker, a bolt carrier, and a ramp. The bolt, in one example, is configured to be able to move within a bolt chamber. The striker having a striker reset hook is able to move in a direction parallel to a moving direction of the bolt. The bolt carrier, having a fastener, a flexible latch, and a bolt repositioning latch, is attached to the bolt via the fastener. The flexible latch is able to latch to the striker reset hook for resetting the striker during a process of launching a projectile. The ramp facilitates disconnecting the flexible latch from the striker reset hook when the flexible latch moves over the ramp.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2014Publication date: May 22, 2014Applicant: Real Action Paintball, Inc, a California CorporationInventor: Omar Alonso Macy

Publication number: 20140060512Abstract: A projectile launching device such as a paintball gun capable of firing a paintball using a hammer is disclosed. The paintball gun, in one embodiment, includes a bolt, a valve, and a hammer wherein the bolt has an air channel and is able to move within a bolt chamber. The valve, which is situated in a firing control chamber arranged in parallel to the bolt chamber, controls pressurized gas. The hammer, in one aspect, includes a pivot hole capable of hosting a pivot pin which facilitates a swing motion for the hammer. When the hammer swings around the pivot hole, the hammer contacts the valve whereby a portion of the pressurized gas is release. The bolt further includes a hammer reset element which is able to reset the hammer to a ready for firing position during a launch process.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2012Publication date: March 6, 2014Applicant: Real Action Paintball, Inc, a California CorporationInventor: Omar Alonso Macy
