Velocity Screw Problem

Hi a few days ago I was chronographing my Tippman 98 Custom Pro and the velocity screw wouldn't tighten anymore. I found that the inside of were the screw goes in is stripped.

Has anyone found this problem and does anyone have any advise?

wow, ive never heard of that happening... :s im assuming that youd probably have to buy a new powertube, and if you do that, you might as well upgrade to the Dead on aluminum powertube instead of that crappy plastic one...

I have an extra c-pro power tube if you'd like to purchase it. Aftermarket bolts and power tubes are a waste of money.

Call tippmann and explain what happened- Your velocity screw and power tube threads are stripped.

They're pretty good about sending out replacement parts.
