Is there some way to tighten that up. One tube is tight and one is usable but not fitting tight.

Use some teflon plumbers tape, it you want it to last a while use the gas certified flameproof version.

Are there Orings? If so change the size.

Back in the skeety days we used clear nail polish.

Depends what kind. Briley Sidekicks have have a red or white nylon tab on the side to you can swap out for a new one to tighten it up.

might consider sending it back to whomever made it.

Take the tube to a machine shop along with the barrel and have the tube knruled to fit the barrel.It is a couple minute job.

Briley machines a dovetail for a polymer insert which is held in place with "super glue" so a new insert can be installed if the tube becomes loose again.

In the past I have used Teflon tape as well as clear nail polish.

A friend used strips of paper from his document shredder.


I was told Briley would do this to Kolar tubes as well.

I'm not sure what decade that story might be from....but Kolar actually started the trend of putting Teflon "Chamber Buttons" on the outside of the chamber on their tubes, and later Briley started doing the same thing.
