ABSTRACT:
A gun having a first mode of operation for propelling the projectile by compressed gas contained within a cartridge and a second mode of operation for propelling the projectile by air compressed by a self contained pumping mechanism. A switching system is provided for switching between the first and second modes. The switching system includes a valve having a first position corresponding to the first mode of operation and a second position corresponding to the second mode of operation. The first position allows compressed gas from the cartridge to propel the projectile and the second position prevents compressed gas from the cartridge from propelling the projectile and allows the projectile to be propelled by compressed air from the pumping mechanism. A switch member is provided for positioning the valve in the first and second positions. The switch member is capable of being actuated by the gun operator to switch the gun between the first and second modes.
