thanks for the advice about the tape...the darn thing has been driving me crazy for about a month..

it was strange to see the flatline fly out of the end of the gun the first time it started to get loose

btw yes the flatline is a little rough, i tried as best i could to get it to match my gun, overall its pretty good except for the one patch on the front which is viewable in the pic. Hey, not bad for a flatline i got used for 65 dollars canadian  the guy had been pretty rough with it, there was some scratching and abrasions in that section that had went below the paint orig. on the barrel...im SOL until i get around to getting a new one (or a stiffi)

mine has an o-ring on it but it was so tight it wouldn't come out so i took it off, after i polished my internals i put the o-ring back on and now its really snug but it comes in and out with the oring, see if theres a groove on your barrel adapter for an oring

Not bad. I like the polished look. Try some lok-tite tape around the threads or if you can, put an o-ring around it.

the chrome is nice. i like the M249 SAW stock that you put on it. the bottom one is nice too. why dont you just ask a guy at a local proshop if you need help with the flatline?

you should get a straight macroline fitting for the polished a-5. that little loop looks goofy.
