no gas shocks, no pneumatics

they shoot with the power of 1 fischer price. It pulls back a large linear bearing rod pulling surgical tubing taught. Then they have a pneumatic cylinder that punches the motor out of the powertrain and frees the shooter.

It's not a gas spring. Its a metal shaft on a linear bearing attached to surgical tubing, the surgical tubing in winched down by a FP (I believe) in a dewalt gearbox. Then they use a dog gear as a clutch.

Edit: looks like I was beat to the 'punch'
