loose drop forward / ufa adaptor

[ornitier72]

ok on my psycho ballistics silver bullet, it has a flame drop forward which slide into the ufa adapter (of course). but after using my marker a bit more, i've found the drop is sliding all the way back and forth along the adapter.. there is room for a screw into the adapter (pictures below) but i have found my marker has actually come without the screw, i checked everything before i took the maker out and played with it, the whole problem wasnt around unti like yesterday, it seemed perfectly fixed when i got it out the box.

anyway, guess what im asking is.. will just putting a screw into the hole fix this problem? and also will just any old screw be ok in there (of course it'd hafta be roughly the right size) as a pose to a specific screw made for the marker.

1. What the hell is that picture?!
2. What's a ufa?

If your talking about where the bottle screws into a grub screw should hold it back in place :confused:

otherwise see above thread

LoL loving that pic Nick :p

Do you mean asa or shall I just go back and sit in my corner?

it is the asa.. i know it is, the only thing is when i looked in the instruction book it didnt say asa it said ufa, so it confused the shit out of me so i just put what it said in the instruction manual :rolleyes:

lol yea the pic rocks huh, thats what u get for asking a 8yr old kid to take the picture.. no flash and zommed right up :p

basically yes its a screw hole in the asa where the co2 screws in at the bottom of the drop.

So its the scew that holds the bottom line (asa) onto the grip? Can you maybe take a few more (smaller) photos with decent lighting so I can be sure exactly what you are asking?

i think its the gub screw that tightens the on off asa onto the dovetail fitting on the drop.

if you can slide the on off asa off the drop, have a look if you can see daylight through the hole in the drop. if you can the grub screw is missing, if not, replace asa onto drop insert allen key in hole and turn clockwise.
otherwise, if you are going to the strines on sunday for the walk on i will have a look.

[ornitier72]

yeah you got it exactly right alan, gonna take a look in a sec, will edit an tell :p

ok this is what i found.. you can see daylight through the hole.. but there is nowehere in the asa for it to screw into, it just sits on the top.. so the screw to me seems to do nothing when its in there.. took a picture, hopefully a little clearer.

as you look at the pic, the asa is slid almost off the asa, there is light coming through, but i wanted to hsow you.. there is no where for the screw to go in the asa, like i said above the screw only seems to go in the bottom of the drop itself.

(sorry picture is big, will need to full-size the winodw to see properly)

It should only be a grub screw that holds the asa in position. It doesn't actually screw into the asa, just grips it so it won't move.

You're missing the grub screw though. You've not had your Silver Bullet all that long have you? Call up the guys you bought it off and ask if they've got one floating around.
