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

    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.
