Combo Man & Mod
Hmm, I'm starting to wonder if the cleanup thinner is doing something weird. When my gun washer solvent gets old it doesn't want to rinse epoxy away. Thinners, acetone, alcohols and the like are very hygroscopic, and once they have a significant amount of water in them they won't work to clean paint, especially epoxy.
If there was a ball of goo in the gun the whole time, I don't think you would have been able to spray the material, that's another reason why I think it might have happened at the cleanup step.
What I would have you do is use 870 to clean your gun next time. I know that's doesn't seem to practical from a cost standpoint, but doing it just once would eliminate some variables.
