It's not that it won't cycle properly. It's possible to run a gb without one however, It's for overcycling protection. Let's say you double tap on semi. If the first shot cycles foreward 110% (momentum), the spring is loaded and will try to uncompress. the Anti-reversal latch prevents the gears from releasing the spring and piston wich will turn the gears in a reverse direction. That way your second tap doesn't get greeted by gears spining in the wrong direction. You COULD instantly destroy your gb.
