Abstract
A paint ball gun includes an agitator mounted on the end of a rotary motor shaft. Rotational direction of the motor shaft is controlled by an electronic circuit responsive to a tilt sensor. The inclusion of tilt sensor provides an enhanced paint ball gun capable of operating optimally during periods of gun tilt. Several preferred magazine designs incorporating the tilt sensor are illustrated. An additional double-rotation of the motor is disclosed which enables short bursts of oppositely directed agitator rotation, which frees any jams that may occur. These short bursts may be triggered manually, electronically responsive to a sensed condition indicative of a jam, or through a timed interval. The paint ball gun is capable of rapidly firing more paint balls under otherwise sub-optimal conditions than previously known in the art.
