I noticed today that my Flatline barrel is loose... I took it out checked it, hooked it back up again and it is still loose.. did the internal threads on the two reciever halfs SOMEHOW wear down? I installed my J J Performance with the stock adapter and I noticed that the adapter would turn when taking the barrel off and putting it back on.. is this normal? If my reciever halfs have already worn down...wow.. I've only had my gun for maybe a two months

Guess just for old-time Bruce I'll have to reliterate what I just said the problem was, when I install the barrel adapter then tighten the three screws the adapter wiggles.. which isn't normal I'm sure, with the flatline on I notice that you can also almost push it in and out a little bit (via the R.I.S. Grip) this is rather annoying. I'm thinking when I put the Flatline in (you put it in then turn it lock it upright) somehow it wore down? Either way something isn't right, it isn't just the flatline as I said it's also the regular barrel.
