Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Shocker Paintball has recalled about 5,200 Shocker RSX paintball markers because the main chamber part can unexpectedly eject from the back of the gun during use. The firm has received eight reports of these chambers failing and flying out with force, though no injuries have been reported yet. These markers were sold at paintball dealers and online at ShockerPaintball.com from May 2015 through August 2016 for between $800 and $1,000.

Risk

The internal blue main chamber can fail under pressure and shoot out the rear of the marker, potentially striking the user or bystanders with high force and causing an impact injury.

What You Should Do

  1. Immediately stop using the Shocker RSX paintball marker and check the main chamber of the device.
  2. Verify if your marker has a blue main chamber with three large rectangular cut-outs and a ring of seven small holes in the neck; these are the affected parts (sometimes marked with SHK104).
  3. If you have a recalled blue chamber, remove it and properly dispose of it to ensure it is not used again.
  4. Contact Shocker Paintball toll-free at 866-253-2338 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit http.Recall.ShockerPaintball.com to receive a free replacement high-flow chamber.
