[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3079199, member: 5412"] For general information, when your inertia gun spring relaxes, your reliability is reduced. Think about it.....recoil, extraction, and everything in that process is dependant on the spring. Gas guns rely on gas. Same situation. If the gas is not equal to the mass it has to cycle, the reliability goes away. But in gas guns that can be regulated by the ammo, the ammo controls the cycle depending on how much pressure is generated within the round used. Both have springs, but the concept of how they are used in cycling the gun is different. Gun manufacturers have found a way around this in shotguns somewhat in the gas guns by drilling ports depending on the length of the shell, etc. Way to much for this thread, but it is being done, and it seems to work. It's similar to the gas operated AR's. Put an a adjustable gas block on the gun and tune it to the gas needed to cycle. [/QUOTE]
