Any experts? Maybe a engineering flaw in the bucking design.

HEllo. My name is Vitor i am from Brazil and i dont play airsoft much but for a decade i am really invested in the inner working of the guns.
two weeks ago i quit my job and now i have plenty time to investigate some things... and hope to make good use of this free time before it ends.

So

THere is one thing that i noticed on aegs design wich i cant find any real solid technical information about

I refer to the bucking works
If you map its working step by step on your mind right now i know you will probably stuck to the most wide spreaded information wich is the following:

1 - the BB go up from the mag to the barrel
2 - the nozzle push the BB forward and stop letting it attached perfectly in the middle of the bucking lip
3 - the air come out from the nozzle and create high pressure before the BB until the pressure surpasses the LIP resistance and shoot it out passing trough the HOP contact applying desired spin to the BB


I really hope someone else noticed what is wrong with that ( im not talking about my bad english)

When i decided to inspect with my bare eyes and hands i noticed that BBs dont stay in the bucking lip
In fact
The air nozzle occupies the spot on contact with the bucking
There is no physical possibilities of the air be applied to the BB from a stationary position at the bucking lip.
The actual situation i will describe

1 - open nozzle and the BB go up from the mag to the barrel tip

2 - the air nozzle push the BB beyond the lip to inside the bucking where the BB will:
_in a continuous cycle, full auto, keep the inertia forward and be blasted with air before it touches the HOP patch

_in a resting scenario alike in the semi fire the BB will stop only because of the HOP patch but will be loose in the space inside the bucking between the air nozzle tip (wich is beyond the lip) and the HOP bit
_Or equals the above but being held in place by the HOP patch and not the lip
_Or the air nozzle cycle back out of the bucking and stops open allowing the BB to rolls back and and stay in the LIP only to get pushed again later either by the air nozzle or by a double feeded BB.
_ Were you have zero hop applied the BB freely roll out of the barrel



If i am correct This explains why expensive precisely manufactured aeg parts still makes only 10 straight hits on 15 shots

If i am wrong in my discovery please let us know your thesis
BUt im well sure of what i am saying

I checked the bucking at GBB pistols And spring action Snipes the design work as intended but the standard AEG bucking seems a flawed design to me.

All that said i am here to ask if anyone found any way around that problem to achieve perfect air transfer and consistency
I've seen some videos of how to put a VSR bucking in a AEG barrel and i wonder if that would solve all of that.

Lets figure it out togheter
I have a AEG v3 AK cyma with a standard bucking and 19,5mm air nozzle flat tip


In a perfect scenario i hope that someone pops up with a video of a see-trough HOP-UP chamber bucking and barrel and a slow motion camera showing every aspect of it all working togheter... but lifes not perfect
