So i just got a new a-5... i figured i would start by taking it apart to see how everything fits... everything was cool until i tried to get the tombstone adaptor back into position... I noticed that a fat little o ring had come out of place and a small washer was out also... I'm pretty sure that these came from the inside of the power tube, but i can't get the tombstone adaptor in without pushing the o-ring out of place... any body have any ideas??? I putting the washer into the powertube first and then the o-ring on top, i dunno if that's right becuase the manual does not show any detail of the power tube....

thanks

you got the order right, but there is a depression inside the valve that you should be able to work the oring into, and it will pop into place. it will still stick out slightly, just keep working at it.

i found out the hard way not to dry fire with the tombstone out. the internals popped out and went down the sink drain.
