Jammed top cocking knob

[ricochet08]

me and my homie had the same problem

get a face towel, wet it, wrap around the knob, get a good grip, twist and pull. yell if u have to

finally came out

works like a charm

same problem but pliers worked for me
what causes it?

When all else fails just fling the marker cocking pin forward against a brick wall, should work just fine and the pin should pop on out...

Or you could be like me and use a 4' Gorilla Bar.

No, I put a cloth under the crowbar, and put the knob between the split at the curved end of the bar, and pushed up slowly.It took some force, but came out.Then I smoothed off the rough edges on the pin with a dremel tool, and put a drop of oil on it.Now it works fine.
I also noticed that it was slightly bent.

im sure the crowbar had something to do with it being "slightly bent"

LOL, just an inkling suspicion, eh?

You might need to loosen the retaining screw some....Might have some loctite on it too.

dude u are stupid for using a crowbar. if it does not come out put it near something that puts out heat. after a game mine is stuck but when it warms up it only takes a twist and a pull.
