sounds to me like the 'pringle' head on the screw has been broken or bent out of shape from maybe over tightening. either way, it's a readily avaiable part to get.

I can't seem to find info on a pringle screw, the lug and screw are turning and it won't tighten up, would True Value have em?

The one on mine looks like someone forgot to remove it prior to removing the valve. Works fine, but fugly. Bret, you have them?

true value won't have one. try AmericanPaintball or JGAirguns. both of them will have them.

Cool, thanks! I can't wait to get her on the road....

I'm trying to avoid sending her to PPS, I wanna keep the "oldschool ugly", but still have a functional marker.

I have a dummy 12 gram on the way, now all I do is drill a hole and attach one of these right? plus a hole in the stock.

no problem Angel.

you'll need to drill for the dummy, but the 'pringle' screw hole is there already. it's an easy thing to fix. i'd take the valve out to put in the screw though. it can be a pain to get the screw positioned correctly with the valve in the way.

I was going to wait for him to find out... Sometimes they can be a bear....

Don't worry though... once positioned it all works...

Valve is already out, I just can't get enuff light in there to see what the head of the pringle looks like, I'd like to go ahead and remove it now,

I'll have pics of my CA conversion parts Edit: now!

I'll have pics of my CA conversion parts in the next couple hours.

the pringle screw head looks like a pringle potato chip.so it seats against the inside of the lower tube.

if you take off the mounting nut & pringle washer(outside section) the pringle screw will drop out from the inside.
