氣動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)操(cao)作(zuo)依(yi)照(zhao)原理與不同槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)枝的(de)(de)(de)(de)機(ji)械設(she)計方(fang)式(shi)有分(fen)為(wei)(wei)四種(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)五類：第一(yi)(yi)種(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)是依(yi)賴活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)原理進行(xing)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)機(ji)運(yun)(yun)作(zuo)的(de)(de)(de)(de)方(fang)式(shi)，亦即透過導(dao)流(liu)使氣體(ti)推動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)，活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)連(lian)動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)機(ji)，透過這一(yi)(yi)串的(de)(de)(de)(de)程(cheng)序完成(cheng)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)枝的(de)(de)(de)(de)自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)/半自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)運(yun)(yun)作(zuo)。然而活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)的(de)(de)(de)(de)運(yun)(yun)作(zuo)以(yi)(yi)行(xing)程(cheng)為(wei)(wei)主，以(yi)(yi)行(xing)程(cheng)移動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)距離的(de)(de)(de)(de)長(chang)短(duan)劃分(fen)，而非以(yi)(yi)活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)的(de)(de)(de)(de)重量或者(zhe)大小劃分(fen)。第二(er)種(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)是利(li)用“收(shou)集”子(zi)彈的(de)(de)(de)(de)高壓氣之后(hou)再導(dao)流(liu)進入(ru)汽缸推動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)或整個槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)管(guan)連(lian)動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)到槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)機(ji)進行(xing)完成(cheng)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)枝的(de)(de)(de)(de)自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)/半自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)運(yun)(yun)作(zuo)。第三種(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)是利(li)用第二(er)種(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)“收(shou)集”氣體(ti)的(de)(de)(de)(de)原理進行(xing)推動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)管(guan)連(lian)動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)機(ji)完成(cheng)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)枝的(de)(de)(de)(de)自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)/半自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)運(yun)(yun)作(zuo)。后(hou)一(yi)(yi)種(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)是經由氣導(dao)管(guan)導(dao)流(liu)氣體(ti)向后(hou)“吹(chui)送”槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)機(ji)完成(cheng)槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)枝的(de)(de)(de)(de)自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)/半自動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)運(yun)(yun)作(zuo)。因此我們大約可以(yi)(yi)分(fen)為(wei)(wei)：短(duan)行(xing)程(cheng)活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)傳(chuan)動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)式(shi)（Short stroke）。長(chang)行(xing)程(cheng)活(huo)(huo)(huo)塞(sai)(sai)傳(chuan)動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)式(shi)（Long stroke）。氣井集氣操(cao)作(zuo)（Gas trap）。槍(qiang)(qiang)(qiang)口(kou)增壓器（Muzzle booster）。直(zhi)噴式(shi)氣動(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)(dong)操(cao)作(zuo)（Direct impingement；也稱為(wei)(wei)Direct Gas Action）。
