Airsoft Flamethrower Question

I found this airsoft flamethrower but I have no clue how the bbs get from the packpack tank to the barrel and if it is using a cloud or a vortex. It is the second flamethrower towards the bottom of this page. http://www.pipersprecisionproducts.com/ ... hrower.htm

Any ideas how the ammo feeds to the barrel from the backpacks with the co2?

I got to thinknig about it and I think its a cloud. I think the bigger pipe where the front handgrip attaches to is a large bb cloud chamber and the T fitting in the back is where the air flow agitates the bbs and sends them into the barrel. Whatcha think about this idea?

The BBs dont go through the hose, just the air, and it clearly looks like a vortex block.

I know the top one is a vortex but I don't get how this one works. It doesnt look like a vortex. http://www.pipersprecisionproducts.com/ ... -Flame.JPG
