Good god, how in the hell did that happen, what type marker you use? Id reccomend taking the marker apart as well as you can. *taking out the bolt* then scrubbin the insides with a squeegee, then scrub the bolt with a rag because that paint is kinda oily. Then get all shell fragments out by using a squeegee and a vaccuum/air compressor. Then after that, lube ur gun up, lube up the parts, and put it back to gether. it should work.

i use a custom diablo gun. i was just shooting it in the back yard testing it out. cause i just got it. and then it just happened. I can see the shell fragments jammed inbetween the bolt and body of the gun. And my tools are packed up because we are remodeling is there any way i can get the shell framents out without taking the gun apart?

Dude what you've got there is a seriously chopped paintball. Ive only seen that happen twice. Use tweezers.

Im pretty sure you can remove the bolt without having to take it apart...Just get the bolt out, wipe it off, then wipe the insides...
How fast were you shooting and what paint. You can only go so fast with guns like that and normal hoppers.

It happens pretty rarely but when it does take out the retaining pin (which holds in the hammer and bolt) All it takes is strength if the shell is wedged in there tight. Be careful though since the back plug is already under spring tension. If it were to give-way while putting a lot of back pressure on the bolt it would likely shoot across the room or field taking with it your striker buffer, spring guide and spring. If you still can't get it to budge remove your hopper and stand the gun upside down in water (hot preferably) so that the bolt tube is completely submerged. After several minutes the gelatin will soften enough to get the bolt out.

just dont be afraid to take apart your gun. Get the bolt out and clean it, and clean the body as well

You should actually practice taking apart your gun and putting it back together, just so you get more comfortable with the idea. Plus, if you need to clean it while you're at the field, you'll be able to do it faster

Take off the quick disconnect watch out for the bottom tube itll spring out at you. Try to remove the bolt then clean everything. Then get as much stuff out as you can by using tweezers and such. Then if its still stuck then get something like a drumstick and put it in the barrel then get a mallet and hit the drumstick, the force will usually knock the bolt out from its stuck position. This happened to me on my spyder xtra, if you need any more help then just pm me.

Drumstick? Wouldn't you get a bunch of chicken grease in the gun? j/k. I always wanted to take a band photo with me holding chicken drumsticks instead of wood ones.
