Gel Blaster Guns: A Complete Guide

Some of you might want to know how gel blaster guns are used correctly, since more and more people have taken up the hobby. This guide will answer the most common questions about gel blasters. This article is very helpful for anyone who wants to learn how to gel blast.

How Does Gel Blaster Work?

A gel blaster can be described as a toy that shoots gel balls. These gel balls are water-absorbent. These gel balls are made of a polymer that is able to absorb water. You must first put the small spheres in a bowl of water before using this toy. After soaking for a few days, the spheres will grow to around 7-8mm in size.

A piston air pump with a spring loaded creates air pressure for the gel ball blaster. The air pressure created by the spring-loaded piston is used to propel gel balls from the gun’s barrel. A gel blaster’s muzzle velocity is usually around 30-50fps. This is lower than an airsoft gun. Gel blasters are relatively safe for children to use.

The water beads burst into pieces when they hit the target. These pieces are water soluble and will dissolve eventually in water. The gel blasters are an environmentally-friendly toy.

This is a detailed explanation on how a Gel Blaster works:

  1. The gel balls are loaded into the magazine of the gun.
  2. The spring loaded piston air pump has been cocked.
  3. When the trigger is pulled out, it releases the piston air pumps.
  4. The gel balls are propelled out of the barrel by the air pressure generated by the piston air pump.
  5. The gel ball hit its target and burst.
  6. The gel balls are broken down into pieces and dissolve when placed in water.

The gel gun is a toy that’s safe for children and adults alike. These are great for both fun and exercise.

Why Should you use dry fire gel ball blasters?

You should not dry-fire a gelblaster. Dry firing is firing a firearm without ammunition. This is the same as firing a gun without gel balls.

Dry firing a Gel Blaster can damage the gun. The barrel can be damaged if the firing pin strikes it. The firing pin may also be damaged, preventing the gun from firing correctly.

Dry firing can also be dangerous. The firing pin could strike the barrel so hard that it breaks. The barrel can break and send flying pieces. This could cause injury to someone.

It is therefore important that you never dry fire your gel blaster. You can practice your aim with a laser or a dry-fire trainer.
