It's just a cam lock fitting with a bushing on the end that holds a short piece of pipe to push the projectile past the tee.

Yea I get that..I mean its a coaxial right, and the end of the barrel has to be sealed.....so how does that work?

It is a coaxial, but not a coaxial piston valve. The sprinkler valve is the main valve of the gun. The barrel goes completely through the chamber.

clide...u can not acheive a barrel to go through the chamber with the main valve being a sprinkler... that is jsut common sense...

Did you look at the gun he linked to? It is even more straightforward than a piston valve, but I can draw a picture if you don't get it.
