HOW LONG DO GELBALLS LAST?

GelBalls can last for several months when stored correctly in an airtight container with water.

They should always be stored out of reach of children under 8 years old.

DO GELBALLS STAIN?

No. GelBalls do not stain clothing or surfaces and do not leave marks behind.

ARE GELBALLS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY?

Our GelBalls are primarily water-based and are designed to break down over time. This makes them convenient for outdoor play and significantly reduces the clean-up compared with traditional solid ammunition.

Proper maintenance helps ensure reliable and safe performance.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UP-FEEDING AND DOWN-FEEDING?

With a down-feeding system, the GelBalls drop into the blaster from a top-mounted magazine using gravity.

With an up-feeding system, the GelBalls are drawn upwards from a bottom-mounted magazine.

Up-feeding models require correctly prepared GelBalls and are typically better suited to more experienced users.

Read more about up-feeding models here.

WHY IS MY GELBLAST NOT SHOOTING?

The most common causes are GelBalls that are too dry or too small, a low battery or a blockage in the barrel.

Also make sure that the magazine is correctly fitted and contains enough GelBalls.
