your flatline may also be improperly installed.

I have herd that aftermarket bolts arnt worth putting on your gun because the stock bolt is just fine.  Try using the stock bolt and really cleaning out your flatine, then see what happens ....

Those aftermarket bolts are the definition of crap, same with aftermarket power tubes. Put the stock internals back in.

Put your stock internals back in first. The after market ones arnt causing this, but they are total crap like he said.

Is it cold out at all (under 50*F)? Low temps make paint shells brittle and very very easy to break especialy in the Flatline. I almost sold mine before I learned this.
