That 'little rod' is the valve pin and cup seal. You absolutly need it. It is what the striker hits to release the firing charge into the bolt to propel the paintball. Without it, air will pour out the barrel until the tank is empty. You need the spring too. :D

yep...that pin/cupseal is modified for better air flow better than a stock one
