So unfortunate this’s not in English. I’ve tried google translate but not helpful

I have just realized maybe we can put an o ring on the hammer, may not stop the blowback but will help with the ping!

I think Snprqty can understand English well but he uses Kuwaiti Arabic in all his videos.

no, it was a short video focused on this, issue but I cant find it anymore.

Could he be saying that air comes also comes out the end of the valve assembly and pushes the hammer back helping to reduce hammer bounce?

Either air is coming out the end of the valve or some is leaking around one of the outside valve assembly o-rings.

BTW, does anything index the outlet of the valve assembly to precisely align with the breach air port? I don’t see an indexing mechanism on any photos I can find.


at 10:12 right after saying something about the Airwolf air pathway and before showing the free floating hammer in the Vulcan

I wish I understood more of what he says.
He seems to be showing differences in air path efficiency and air valve function.
