hey everyone
i disassembled my phantom to clean it up and i noticed that there is a hole in the compression tube assembly where the 2 stock mounting screws go into the breach end of the comp tube assembly i can see the metal that has been pushed into the assembly from the screw holes and when i looked through the treaded holes sure enough i could actualy see through it, now the hole isnt big but it is there none the less and whats worse is it is difficult to remove that little burr. now im sure with locktight and a screw in it im probably not losing air through that little hole but it is where the piston seal meets the end of the assembly when fired and im thinking that cant be good for the seal.
i have no doubts ill figure out a way to clean that burr out but i was wondering if anyone else has noticed the same thing in their guns.
have a good one
