ABSTRACT:
A gas-powered paint ball gun in which a magazine is attached tangentially to a firing chamber or barrel. An opening is provided in the magazine so as to release back-pressure. Paint balls are fed into the firing chamber through the magazine in a direction tangent to the firing chamber and in a direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the firing chamber or barrel. The paint balls being loaded into the firing chamber each have a limited radial distance to travel and therefore have a limited travel period. The unique configuration enables each paint ball being loaded into the chamber to come to rest in the firing chamber more rapidly and thereby reduces the risk of the gun becoming jammed. Further, this configuration enables the gun to be fired more rapidly and with greater assurance that the gun will not jam.
