      Try unscrewing it. If it can unscrew, then it needs to be sent back to the factory to be properly locked back in place.

                  Thats kinda weird, put some oil in it and see if it comes out. Did you strip it?

                          Loose power tube

                          A loose powertube is not a good thing. Do not shoot the marker anymore and return the entire valve to AGD.

                                  Hey another question, have you ever left out the rubber bumper and played with it? I could see that maybe that could have caused your problem. Just something to look at too.
