Hey guys, I have been working on a new gun the past few months that is breech loading, yet feeds darts via a magazine. My current problem is the breech will tear up darts below the one being loaded. I have a video showing the problem, I am mimicking the spring of the magazine with my thumb. I was only using blank stefans for all the tests, maybe thats the problem? Sorry for relatively unclear video footage, I tried to make it the best I could. All and any suggestions and/or solutions are much appreciated.

This is esactly why FA24 made the angel breech. In a traditional slide breech, dart pusher is the barrel also. This will make the breech pinch other darts. In an angel breech, the dart is pushed into the barrel by a piece smaller than the barrel and is sealed by the breech cover that cannot cut darts because the dart is already in the barrel.

Could you emphasize more on how the piece worked? I am very interested.

*Sigh*. It's sort of hard to explain, but basically, because the dart is past where the breech closes (or where the half pipe ends) when the angel breech is closed, the cart cant be clipped. Hope this helped.

I sort of understand, but I think I may have solved the problem so don't worry about it.

Actually I take that back, I still am having the shredding issues, plus I need to keep the design very similar to what I have right now. Even the angel breech is too far fetched to work, if that makes sense.

Figure it out for yourself dude. No one is going to do this for you.
