Also, I had a barrel stick in my trracer before, it turned out the gun lube made it pick up lint from my barrel bag and the lint hardened and jammed the threads. If you use vaseline or some kind of lube, put some plastic on the threads when you put the barrel away. Or clean it before use.

: Use a pipe wrench and go to town. But assuming you don't want to scratch up your marker or gouge out slices in your barrel you may want to try the following. Wrap a piece of leather (from an old belt or something) around the barrel first and then use pliers, vise-grips or what ever tool you might have. To prevent this from happening again, just rub a small amount of Vasaline on the barrel's threads whenever you do your cleaning. You can also use an o-ring on the barrel to keep a snug fit without having to over tighten the threads.

: : i cant seem to remove the barrel off of my cocker. it seems to be stuck. does anyone know what i can do? it getting to be a pain.
