The invention relates to a device for feeding projec~tile balls into the bal l chamber of a handgun, especially into the ball chamber of a paintball gun, having a ball container (3) with an outlet port (17), a feeder tube be~tween the outlet port (17) and the ball chamber, and an es~sentially cylindrical feeder (8) with an axis for feeding the balls (14) from the ball container ( 3) to the feeder tube. The device comprises a flexible element (26) that is disposed inside the ball container adjacent to the outlet port (17). A first end of the flexible element (26) is fixed to the ball container (3) and the flexible element is essentially rigid in the direction of the axis. Balls (1 4) that are not in the correct position when approaching the outlet port (17) a re deflected back into the ball container (3), instead of hitting the edge of t he outlet port (17). This way, jamming of the balls (14) and explosion by excessive pressure are prevented. |
