Has anyone had a problem with the 5" barrel on their p22 coing loose?
I was going to pick up a lightly used P22 yesterday, but the front assembly (not really a weight, not really a comp) was loose. I tighted the set screws, no help. Then I noticed the barrel was loose, not the assembly. So, I tore the whole gun down (man, that salesguy loved me) and tightened the barrel.
By the time I reassembled the gun, the barrel was loose again.
I ended up paying $50 more for a NIB gun.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is this something I should be expecting in the new gun? Do I hope for the best or just get the Loctite out now?
Any $.02 worth of input would be greatly appreciated.
