Rammer stuck!!!!!

The rammer on my 06 ego won't come out!

It's almost out but just enough for me not to be able to get a. Grip of it and pull it out? What should I do?

Use your bolt in the slot of the rammer to push it as far back as possible, then move the bolt in front of the rammer and push it the rest of the way back. Typically if you tap the back of the gun with the bolt out it'll just pop out. You do have the bolt pin disengaged right?

pull out the bolt, then try.

If still no avail, oil, shake, pliers, grab, tug.

use your allan wrench. stick the angled part down into the slot and that will allow you to push on the back of the rammer to get it out.

You don't think it will scratch the inside chamber? It's like stuck stuck, it's a quarter sticking out now (red rubber bumper is exposed and the first oring) but I don't want to grab it with a wrench and strip the hammer!!!

Try to get some oil on the rammer and orings. see if you can make it spread. Might help loosen it.

There is no "hammer" in an ego... that is a spyder thing. There is nothing to strip there either. Something is broken inside or you need to workout, because this should be super easy.

Okay I forced it out finally (super stuck and it was hard to get out). But now so when I just drop it in it stops with about 1/3 left of the rammer exposed as if something is blocking it. I know it's suppose to just drop in flushly but do you think it may just need lube or something is wrong?

I would clean it, Replace orings, then oil it again first before anything

I would shine a flashlight or pen light into the rammer housing to make sure nothing is in there, like a paintball shell or the left overs of an oring.....

Woah.....

You have bent the tip of the ram. If you keep forcing it like this...you are going to gouge the inside of the rammer housing and REALLY be in a bad way.

You need to replace the ram.

How do you know he bent the rammer instead of debris int the rammer housing? There have been no pics posted nor has there been any info since he was told to check for debris.

Having worked on literally thousands of Egos over the years...I knows that there is nothing inside the Rammer housing that will cause the ram to get so stuck that you have to "Force" it out.

Others have indicated that he can use an alan key to remove the ram. This is true under normal circumstances...but it would freely dislodge from the back of the gun.

Without actually seeing the ram...I suppose you are right...I don't know that he has bent it...but I have a very strong opinion that he probably has.

OP...

before you force the rammer back in the housing...please roll it across the table. Look at the tip of the ram while doing so...if it's showing you "wobble" on the front end...it's bent like I suggest. If it is NOT bent...then...

I apologize...

I'm just going by what I read...that's all!

I completely understand. I am one of the guys in my area that gets called on to fix things. I have seen a rammer get stuck from lack of maintainance.

Now , as for the rammer, as p8ntshoota suggested check your rammer. If its bad it's a cheap fix.

Yeah the rammer is Definetly not bent. It's more
The the housing that stops the rammer from flushly dropping into the camber.

Should I clean the chamer with a squiggy and is there an oring that goes at the tip of the rammer?

We need pictures... It is too hard to guess what you are trying to say. It should not drag at all (other than normal oring friction).

OK...as promised...

I apologize....

I've NEVER seen a ram that was so difrficult to get out of a marker that you had to "Force" it out unless the tip was bent.

Without seeing any type of picture...any type of guess is likely to happen.

Good Luck.
