    NO no no hitech. Roguefactor im'ed me and asked why i couldnt Instant message him. I said I always got good/great help from AO. He said he was always on, I said not 20 min's ago when Duck Hunt and I first Realized the problem, and he said well I'll let them help you and signed off. Not any of the explanations at all. sorry for the misunderstanding.

      Are you kidding?!?!? Rogue gave you a PERFECTLY legitimate reason as to why it could be wiggling. Don't go blaming him for your technological ineptness. The snatch grip was designed for a mag, and for mulitiple frames with different dimensions, there fore you are going to get wiggle with some frames and none with others. As for the tightening down of the screw, if you tighten it down it will snug up and hold it but if you overtighten it you run the risk of breaking off the field strip screw in the valve with the normal vibrations of use.

      Many parts have what are called tolerances, RPG snatch grips need slightly larger tolerances to fit other frames. There are a lot of products that are specific to one thing and one thing only and STILL have wiggle or wobble and are loose. Examples, quick disconnect style drops.... The tolereances need to be loose in order for them to work, and allow the disconnect to work. You can just snug the retaining nut/bolt to reduce the wiggle. If the slight wiggle was not there you could neither get the disconnect to slide on or off, and you might as well have a fixed drop. Emag Battery packs, are another example, every single pack will wiggle. You need to snug the field strip screw down in order to eliminate the wiggle.

      Sorry for the rant, but people need to understand that these things are this way for a reason. If you don't like it, then don't buy it and close yourself off from all technology.

        Woah you must not understand, I was complimenting all of you guys when I said I got good even great help, the comment I made was for a conversation on AIM, not AO. The only reason I posted that on AO was because he signed off of AO, and I felt that was the only way I could have what could be a conversation with him. And I've been getting mixed responses, most say to buy the o-ring others are saying to tighten it more.

          Yea, he said Rogue was pissy with him on aim not in his response here. Read before you rant.

          Don't tighten it more, just buy that washer. Tightening it more risks damage and who needs that. I'd get the washer and see if that helps. It most likely will. Tightening the field strip screw more than finger tight isn't a good idea.

            Sometimes you do have to tighten it a tad more than finger tight. But don't go crazy.

            Leave the kid alone. He got panicky and thats what we here for. I am certain Rouge would rather he had come to him first and I am certian he told him so. But knowing him I am certain he is not gonna lose no sleep over it nor hold a grudge over such a minor thing.

            You shouldn't make people feel scared to come here for help. And I don't see anything wrong with admonishing them for being over reactive but sheeesh... give the kids a break. They are the future of paintball... and the world.... scary isn't it?

              Definetly^. I was worried cause i just spent a considerable amount of money on upgrades through RogueFactor. And to not have one of those upgrades work, is pretty freaky. I would have talked to RogueFactor first if he was on aim when the problem/realization arose.
