I posted about not being able to quick strip my a5. after anin depth investigation I found that the rear end of my power tube is bent from being repeatedly rammed into the block of aluminium at the bottom rear of the reciever that supports the pin that holds the trigger group and grip onto the reciever. I was wondering if this would affect the performance of my gun or if I need to replace my power tube. if anyone can help I'll be greatly appreciative.

in depth investigation eh?

Sounds more like you tied to force it out and broke it. As long as your rear bolt can freely move into the back and strike the valve pin, it should be ok.
