A structure includes a bolt body combined in a toy gun, a bullet feeding element, a high pressure air opening, an air outlet opening, an air valve assembly, a piston element, a recoil bar at one side of the bolt body, a first elastic element fit over the recoil bar, a bolt sleeve defined at one side of the bolt body and movably fit over the recoil bar, and an abutting section. When the high pressure air is input through the high pressure air opening, the air valve assembly may change a flowing direction thereof and drive the abutting section to move so as to control rearward movement of the piston element, the bolt body, and the bullet feeding element. A first elastic element that is operable to move the bolt body forward is disposed on the recoil bar outside the bolt body.

A method of manufacturing an engine piston may include performing upper-body formation for forming an upper body as an upper portion of a piston body by pressing a powder-type sintered material, performing lower-body formation for forming a lower body as a lower portion of the piston body by pressing a powder-type sintered material, performing bonding for forming the piston body by providing a brazing material between the upper body and the lower body and brazing the upper body and the lower body to each other while sintering a sintered material, performing machining for removing pores from the surface of the piston body by machining the surface, and performing heat treatment for forming a passive film by performing at least one of nitriding heat treatment or oxidation heat treatment on the surface of the piston body.

A valve assembly for an air gun includes a valve housing defining a first bore. The valve assembly includes a plug disposed in the first bore. The plug is movable relative to the valve housing to an open position which allows fluid communication through the first bore and a closed position which prevents fluid communication through the first bore. A slide block includes an engagement surface. The slide block is movable relative to the valve housing to a safety position in which the engagement surface is spaced a first predetermined distance from the plug, a firing position in which the engagement surface is spaced a second predetermined distance from the plug, and a bleed position in which the engagement surface engages the plug to move the plug to the open position. A bleed apparatus includes a gas-spring assembly and the valve assembly discussed above coupled to the gas-spring assembly.

A dart launcher having few but integral parts and an assembly process that is quick and easy for forming robust but inexpensive toys. The launcher may have an outer body, a safety valve and spring, a valve cap, a trigger, a piston, a launch spring, a cylinder cap and a plunger rod. The outer body includes an integral cylinder portion, a barrel portion and a trigger-mounting portion, the trigger includes an integral finger pad portion, a latch arm, a biasing portion and resilient legs. The piston includes an opening and a connector component formed around the opening to snap-fit with the piston, the cylinder cap includes an opening for the plunger rod and a connector component to connect with the cylinder portion, and the barrel portion includes a valve and mandrel support for supporting the safety valve and spring.

A toy dart gun is provided including a gun shell, a trigger assembly, and a compression assembly. The trigger assembly includes a swing arm coupled to the gun shell and movable between a safe position and a fire position, and a swing arm pusher extending from the gun shell and having an inclined surface. The compression assembly includes a compression chamber positioned within the gun shell and having a barrel opening and an opposite holder opening, and a plunger slidably insertable through the holder opening and movable between a retracted position and an extended position. As the swing arm moves toward the fire position, the swing arm engages the plunger and pulls the plunger toward the extended position. When the swing arm is in the fire position, the swing arm pusher deflects the swing arm from engagement with the plunger and the plunger is biased toward the retracted position.
