ATS
has finally released this much anticipated after-market product to the
public.
Retail price: $39.95 Design idea: Replaces the standard breech sizers that matches your diameter of paint to the barrel. A good fitting sizer does not allow paint to roll out of the barrel and positions each ball consistently within the breech before firing. End product: Uni-sizers eliminates the need to size different breech sizers to achieve a "snug" fit. They utilize a cast polyurethane "gland" that self compensates to different diameters of paint. Think of it as a living glove that gently holds each ball before they are shot out the barrel. When a ball is positioned within the sizer, the gland holds the balls so well that light does not shine through. Another reason why you should consider purchasing one
is that the standard breech sizers utilize very fine threads that can get
cross-threaded if you are always swapping them out to achieve the right
"fit." OTP manufactures an Autococker barrel called the G-1 which
also uses "sizers" to match paint to the barrel. But they do not
need to be screwed onto the barrel.
