Phantom Anti Double Pump?

[Toestr]

Do Phantoms have this feature and if not can they be retrofitted to have it?

No the bolt dose not lock closed like an SL68 if that is what you are asking. You can get the ASP detents this will eliminate Rollouts and double feeds but if you pump it twice it will load two paintballs just like most pumps with very few exceptions.

If you are just getting into pump play you will eventually stop double pumping it with practice. It will become mussel memory. When In doubt pull the trigger to clear the breach and reset your timing.

The Phantom is one of the best performing Stock Class markers. It’s very reliable and efficient. They make very good open class pumps and with its modular design it can be made into a bunch of different pump play styles that fit your needs with even more options when you look at the aftermarket support for them. It’s the one marker that dose it all.

Almost no gun does this and once you have a day’s experience you won’t need it.

Hmm alright, I thought it was a more common feature. Two of the three different Nelsons I've owned have had it.

What other pump locks forward? I thought that was a unique feature on the SL68’s.

My Hammer 7 also locked forward. Apparently the USI Raider also.

So... how can the feature be added? I agree that it's not necessary after you get used to it (can feel whether it's loaded via trigger pressure or a quick press-check on the pump) but it would be cool to know how, if someone wanted to.

A latch in the frame, linked to the trigger?

maverick locks forward also. assume trracer and hornet do as since they are all same design.

If you can’t double pump it how are you supposed to double ball an electro when you bunker them

[RAZRBAKK]

Empire trracer also locks forward.

The PMI Trracer does not lock, it’s exactly like a Phantom.

The only gun I’ve ever owned with this feature is the JT ERS.

well CCM use to have set for ball dent to stop double loading paintballs but that was hooper feed thing.

Snipers and [later] Sterlings have them and anti-double-feed is now standard on Phantoms.

I have never had a use for this feature ever…just don’t hold the breach open like a ding dong…very easy. It makes more sense as a feature on a Cocker, honestly.

I’m fine with no ball detents.

but sometimes something happens and a double feed occurs and it’s a helpful feature then and is basically maintenance free so I think it’s a worthy improvement
