The front bolt got caught on a ball. You need an electric hopper.

Now if you do have a force fed hopper then the problem is your rear bolt and sear. They are wearing out and you need a new one. Try firing real fast with out paint and see what it does. If it shoots fine try what everyone else mentioned. I have never heard of the marker half cocking cause of paint being caught in the bolt, always thought the marker would just chop paint and keep shooting fine. At least thats what my friends 98c does. If it doesn't shoot fine with out paint call tippmann and order you a new rear bolt and sear. Should be free of charge.
