What Does a Ball Detent Do?

The ball detent sits inside the marker and helps keep the paintball in the correct position before the shot.

Without a working detent, a ball may roll too far forward. More than one ball may also enter the barrel.

This can cause poor feeding or broken paint.

When Should You Replace It?

Check the detent if your M17 starts to feed poorly.

Common signs can include:

• Paintballs rolling forward in the barrel
• Double feeding
• Broken paint
• Unusual feeding problems

The detent is a wear item, so keeping a spare in your parts kit can be useful.
