Abstract

An air-soft gun includes a grip; a high-pressure air canister disposed in the grip; and a remaining compressed air release device including a channel member threadedly secured to an end of the air canister and including an axial channel and a sealing ring; a rotatable cap releasably secured to the channel member; a biasing member fastened between the cap and the channel member; a striker including a needle on a first end, an internal passageway, an inlet proximate the needle and communicating with the passageway, an outlet proximate a second end and communicating with the passageway, internal threads on the passageway proximate the second end, and a threaded fastener driven through the cap into the internal threads to secure the cap to the striker. The inlet is blocked by the sealing ring in an inoperative position.

Claims (6)

1. An air-soft gun comprising:

a pistol-grip;

a high-pressure air canister disposed in the pistol-grip; and

a remaining compressed air release device comprising an externally threaded, cylindrical channel member threadedly secured to an end of the air canister and including an axial channel and a sealing ring; a rotatable cap releasably secured to the channel member; a biasing member fastened between the cap and the channel member and urging against the channel member; a striker including a needle on a first end, an internal passageway, an inlet proximate the needle and communicating with the passageway, an outlet proximate a second end and communicating with the passageway, internal threads on the passageway proximate the second end, and a threaded fastener driven through the cap into the internal threads to secure the cap to the striker;

wherein the inlet is blocked by the sealing ring in an inoperative position of the remaining compressed air release device; and

wherein a clockwise rotation of the cap causes the sealing ring to unblock the inlet, thereby flowing compressed air in the pistol-grip to the outlet through both the inlet and the passageway.
