just got mine today and i notice this after i broke the first 3 balls. notice on the first pic how far back the star thingie sits. this causes the ball to sit 2mm farther back in the chamber then it should. as seen in pic two. this causes the next ball to come 1/3 of the way into the camber and the bolt has to push 5+balls back up inot the loader just to fire one ball. this causes one of two things to happen. #1 it just chops the ball to begin with. #2 it makes the ball jump up and if you fire your second shot too fast (10bps limit on gun) it will chop it anyways.

I echo: Not good at all.

Hmm.... usually, on those spyder-type guns, the venturi is removable. (my Spyder-friends have all removed theirs) I wonder if you could get a longer version from an after-market source. Bet its a bummer to get a new gun that does not fuction correctly =(

Good luck!
