So i have been having a problem when i'm out shooting my new pnuematic GB Cannon, is when i'm walking along holding my gun like a good safe spudder (barrel aimed at the ground) my balls fall out (of the barrel) so I thought or a remedy to fix it. you know on vacuum cleaners the wand attachment how you have to push the little button in to take it a part, well i took that idea and modified it. I took a 1/4 compression insert cut it down a little bit filled it with epoxy and stuck it to a inch and a half piece of old hose clamp. then drilled a hole in an experimental piece (shown in the picture) and slipped it in and made sure that the golf ball will go through. basically the hose clamp piece acts as a leaf spring and the pressure of the shot makes the ball push the stopper up and out the barrel, but when it's just resting the pressure holds the ball from rolling out the barrel

Innovative and brilliant. You should make a how-to one this.

Very nice indeed, that would help out countless people.
Nothing worse than "letting your balls slide out" :lol:
Great idea 10/10.

don't know about leaking barrel pressure yet as i have yet to fire it, i had to wait for the epoxy to finish setting up and then take it out off the mock up and fix it on the barrel will update tomorrow
