    valve assembly unscrewing?

    after shooting some rounds (like 50), the valve will start to unscrew. so where it says "AutomaG" the "T" is not lined up anymore.

    is this bad? replace the O ring?

      You can try this, but that is a normal occurance.

      That is why the zlock is there (the little pin that can make it annoying getting the valve in and out.

      Make sure that's there and rides in the groove in the rail correctly.

        its normal. all of my clasics do this and it drives me up the wall!

        This proablly isnt AGD approved but,
        I guess you could use blue locktite and let it dry before you starting firring. Just make sure the locktite stays out of the valve body!

            It won't help anything to lock it in place so the letters are perfectly lined up. It was design to take into consideration the valve unscrewing slightly. Lining up the name is just for general reference so you know it will slide in properly. Do NOT get loctite anywhere near your valve.

              yeah, about 1/16" of screwness. when i saw "blue loc tite" i cringed and knew that AGD would also. if this is normal, its all good then.

              thanks!

                why not black? His letters would line up however it would only take a bench vice and 3 guys with channel locks/dykes to get it open!
