Lol, I had this problem just a few days ago when Spudshot sent me the diagram. I thought and thought. I was almost to the conclusion that it created a vacum or something and pulled it back, then the maker simply was lazy when it came to the other stuff. Then the shooting video finishedl, and the blue part is connected to the bolt handle. You will notice when watching the video he has to pull it back everytime.

the action handle is cycled, causing it to be pushed back, then it is locked in place by the sear, the diagram doesnt show the action handle, but it is manually cycled (could be pneumatic cylinder controlled on a circuit for semi)

me and my freind bought powerful bb guns (the airsoft kind) put on safty goggles and ran around the felt shooting each other ,ahh good times.
this one time i had my friend pinned down in a tree,i was hiding behind a bush letting out a shot for his exposed legs now and then, he shouted ,"don't shoot im reloading!" so oviously i jump out to shoot at him when a bb nails me in the neck,the basterd tricked me and i had a nice mark for a few days.

The bolt is pulled back by hand and it slides back into the forward position by a spring located on the top of the rifle.

THe ejector works by ( the bolt)gripping the shell (on one side) allowing it to travel back with the bolt , then a spring loaded thingy pushes the shell out when it's at the port.
The gun is very nicely made.I really like the tech-ness of it.
To bad a spring powered gun is to weak compared to a 22 bar pcp piston valve.

THe mechanism is great but it can't be too powerful
