I just got my Spyder TL Plus today. I was outside shooting around and all of a sudden it jammed. I need help on how to field strip it cause i'm new at paintball. Anything?

what happend is u chopped a ball, and a piece of paint wedged in ur frame. What u need to do is take out the pin under ur bolt, and hold down ur velocity adjuster. Take the pieces out fo your gun one by one, and clean out the inseide, and the bolt and stirker. Re oil, and ull be good to go. If u didnt break a ball, then i dont know what happened, maybe u ran out of co2. I dont have a tl, but the shutter has the same internals, so u dont have to worry about me not knowing whatim talking about :)

i was just shooting it and it just stopped. right now, all that you can see of the bolt is the knob and about a centimeters worth of the shaft.

grab the knob and pull back as hard as you can, or take a rod, stick it down your barrel, and push the bolt out...i had a jam too..

Well, first let me tell you that you havent screwed up your gun, and you can stop worrying, it sounds like it might be a shell jam like they mentioned, I've had that happen before and I really had to pull HARD on my bolt to get it unlodged. What it might be, is something sorta worse, but still easily fixable. Question, did you oil your gun when you got it? If you didnt, there's a chance the o-ring snagged, pulled out of it's groove and got itself jammed in there, I've heard of this happening to someone before, his o-ring broke (happens to everyone once in a while) but then a piece got caught under the bolt. The only solution, regardless of paint or o-ring, is like they said, take out everything you can from the back of your marker, grab hold of that bolt and PULL. If you cant get it dislodged, call up Kingman, it should be under warranty. Hope you can get it out man

sticking something down the barrel won't hurt the gun?

take the barel off, all u did was fire too fast, so u hit the ball before it fell into the body, so u broke it, and got it stukc. Do the warm water thing, the shell will loosen, and u can pul the bolt out, if not, use like a penicl and push out the bolt. I would invest in a revo if i were u, becasue if u choped on while shoointg , in a game ull chop one.

LOL, ok im sorry, i had to post this:

I clicked on this thread by accident not knowing what the topic or problem was, and i read replies such as " grab the knob and pull back as hard as you can, or take a rod, stick it down your barrel, and push the bolt out...i had a jam too.."

I laughed for about 3 minutes straight :D

THis happens to me sometimes I just put a screwdriver on the back of my bolt and tap it lightly with a hammer barely any effort and the bolt becomes unstuck
