The power tube "nipple" that the response trigger fitting screws into is broken.  You need to replace the power tube.

and once done, maybe a little sanding and nice coat of ultra flat black paint ;) And before you ask www.tippmannparts.com or www.paintball-discounters.com for the powertube. And no, you shoudn't replace it with anything but the original Tippmann replacement part. Any after market tubes are a total waste of your money.
