The product description says it includes a Starfire bolt. The inside of the bolt isn't a "star"; like you said its round. The "star" pattern is only on the tip where it comes into contact with the ball. Is that what you're seeing? Also, is your outer o-ring in the same location as in the link pic? Perhaps some pics of yours would be easier.

The only bolts that I know of that have inner o-rings are the Superfly, Orange Howitzer, New Designz, and Trinity bolts.

Re: Front Bolt, interal O-ring size?

oh yea. thats what i meant. the tip doesn't have a star pattern. it's just plain round. I reread the post and i guess it is in the description as a starfire bolt (i still do think it is tho). and yes, the outer o ring is in the same position as the one in the pik. I prefer the one with the o ring at the front though. The o ring in the middle position doesn't seem to create a good seal when the bolt is fully foward and fired. The Middle o ring position makes it so that when the bolt is full foward, the o ring can be seen through the vortex loader (where it fails to make a seal).
havent actually fired balls through it yet tho.


thanks anyways guys, i went to the local hardware store and found one to fit.
