How does a 3 way work?

[ojhspyro89]

Hows a 3 way on a cocker work, ive got the idea but not the whole idear

[Koosh]

It has three barbs on it. the one in the middle puts in low pressure air (under 100 psi) from the LPR on the front block. On the inside of the three way are orings that route the air to the ram.

In the stock, finger off the trigger, mode, it is routing the air to the front of the ram, and that pushes the ram forward, closing the bolt/backblock combo.

When you pull the trigger, a shaft in the threeway moves, it seals off the air to one side of the ram, and shifts it to the other, forcing the piston to go back, cocking the gun and letting a paintball fall in the breech.

Make sense?

If it doesnt, stare at this diagram for awhile.
