Bad pic I know but made it on my phone lol


Go out and buy a bit of dowling rod JUST smaller then the inside of the barrel your gunna want about 5 to 6 Inches ... drill a small'ish hole all the way through the centre so its a tube then about 2 or 3 inches from one end cut the dowl at an angle get a long bolt longer then the rod ya just made and put

Bolt
Washer
2 parts of the rod
Washer
Nut
Like in the crappy pic iv done



As you tighten the bolt it spreads the wood out gripping the barrel part and then tust twist the dowl


Tad dahhhhhhh ...

If your going to do that you would want to heat the outside of the marker with a hair dryer, idea being the outside metal expands whilst the inner bit stays contracted. Have you got a pic of it so we can see exactly what it looks like?

OK!
I took it took work to give it the beans for the last time with my tools and what do you know it just came off!
Maybe the freezer job did the trick :)

The marker in question is a wpg auto cocker sport
thank goodness that it wasn't my evolution autococker I would have cried :(
Thank you everyone for all your tips and for looking
