I have a brand new rt pro and a brand new Boomstick. With every shot as I look down the barrel it shakes up and down slightly. I can wiggle the barrel a little while holding the gun. The boomstick has two O rings and the nubbin. It does seem like its tight. I know the Barrel is in right. How can I fix this?

Remove the barrel o-rings, put something in the grove to space it out (tape is an idea) and put the o-rings back on. In the classic 'mag video Tom shows you what to do. I'm not sure if it's in the RT video.

are you sure it isn't the kick of the mag making the barrel seem likes it's moving?

Try tightening the Barrel Twist Lock Assembly, its the pin that the groove in the barrel sits in.

there is a tad bit of flutter between shots. It wont effect accuracy because the barrel isnt moving until after tha ball leaves the barrel.

If you want it a tad tighter double up one of the orings ( using atotal of 3 ) on the barrel.

DOnt tighten the twist lock

I didn't have extra o ring so i took the oring off, put one wrap around the groove with teflon tape, then put the o ring back on.

Thanks guys, I'll try the extra O ring or teflon tape thing. Which ring would you double/build up? Breech end or end closer to outside of the mag
