Oh, receiver bolts/screws you mean. Tighten your receiver bolts just snug. I have never lost a bolt, but I have drilled 4 or 5. It's a pain in the #&*.

Put some CR around them so it sinks into and around the screws.
Leave it for a few minutes, and it should be good to remove. |

At worst, call Tippmann Service and send it in if you don't think you can do the job yourself. They do good work and depending on the severity of the problem you usually get a 5 day turnaround time. -------------
