A paintball agitator housed within a loader of a paintball gun is provided. The agitator includes a rotatable shaft having a drive end and a second end, and at least one fin extending radially from the shaft adjacent the second end of the shaft. The at least one fin is configured for movement in a substantially perpendicular plane relative to the shaft upon unimpeded rotation of the shaft. The at least one fin is adapted for movement in a plurality of substantially non-perpendicular planes upon contact with an obstruction within the loader, thereby permitting continuous rotation of the shaft and agitation of paintballs contained within the loader. The shaft may include a rigid drive-end segment and a flexible second-end segment, or it may include a flexible drive-end segment and a rigid second-end segment. Alternatively, the entire length of the shaft may be made of flexible and resilient material.
