I used to know but i cant remeber the exact detail. but i think u gotta take the end cap thing off(back of the gun by the cocking nob) and then u pull the cocking nob back as far as u can and the while ur still pulling u pull out to take the hand off the bolt, the the bolt and stuff should just come out with ease. not sure on every thing though. tippmann will send u a manuel for free.

It's not that hard, you have it half right... need to remove the lickage arm before you can pull the back bolt out though.
here's the order I like to do it in...
first, take the shroud off
second, slide the sight foward and shake the linkage arm out... you might have to hit it in your hand a few times for it to come out.
third, unscrew the end cap, pull the pin and the spring out
next, pull the cocking arm back and when it's back, you kind of have to shake it out and work it.
after the knob is out, hit the back end into your hand a couple times, firm, the back bolt slides out.
the front bolt isn't to hard...
anything more than that.. and it gets complicated, I normally don't go into the valve and power tube for cleaning, though I probably will have to one day... maybe when I get that x-chamber or gass through grip...
then just reassemble it in the way you took it apart... and don't put everything in, and forget the cocking knob... that's a pain..
thanx guys. Field stripping is not the best feature on tippmann guns.
