When you took it apart, was it jammed midcycle? would the arl release the gears completely or was it still stuck mid cycle?

I didn't get to see. I'm assuming it was stuck midcycle cause as soon as I opened it up, the piston shot outwards.

Keep your barrel clean and use quality BB,s to help avoid jamming.
But you need a new piston now.  IMO guarder pistons suck, I use TM pistons and they seem to be better then most at there price point. |
I had just bought a new prommy barrel + bucking and I'm thinking that I may not have set it up correctly with the hop-up, which caused my jam. Could my bucking be damaged at all? They seem very resilient considering what they are made from.
I bought a new SHS 15 teeth piston recommended to me by the great guys at airsoft store canada. I'm going to be re-shimming, reinstalling the bucking, cleaning the barrel, and be very thorough in general.
Also, I use the madbull eco BBs that come in the milk cartons. I assume them to be high quality.
