Basically, the gun looks like a cloud and is a cloud, but there is also a vortex block to improve performance. In a regular cloud, BBs are actually sucked down the barrel because of a venturi. In this, the BBs will be sucked into a vortex where they shoot around in circles until they are sucked down the barrel.

Godd Idea, eh?

To my knowledge, what the vortex block does is prevent jamming. Am I right? What you've done over there is to move the point where bbs jam from the breech to the inlet of the vortex. Nothing gained.
In addition, there's friction when the bbs spin against the block's walls. So it would pretty much have both of the problems of a cloud and a vortex and none of the benefits.
Nice try, though.

I'm still going to try it. I don't need higher rate of fire as long as there's more power. :twisted:
