blowforward?

[Thor the Mighty]

i don't get how mags have a blowforward system! how does that work?

i am not positive but i think its the opposite of a blow back. the bolt is blown forward and then a spring pushes the assembly back while in a blowback the spring pushes the bolt forward and the air blows the bolt back. . . thats how i thought it worked. . . let me know if im wrong guys (which i probably am hehe)

Part of the searholds the bolt until you pull the trigger, then the sear also cuts off air flow to the bolt, the bolt moves forward, expends it's air, and the spring sends it back for the bolt to catch, It makes sense once you see it in person
