What type of gasket did you use? Rubber, cork, etc...? Got any pictures to post of what you did? Thanks...AK
What you have here is the result of metal on metal vibration. All of the screws and bolts on the engine of your car would come loose too if it weren't for GASKETS dampening the vibration.
What the springers need is a simple gasket between the receiver and the scope rings.
Then everything would stay nice and tight.
Take a 2' long piece of steel, drill a hole in it and put a bolt/lock washers/nut in the hole, tighten it down real good. Now beat on the other end of the piece of steel. The bolt comes loose in no time.
Now, remove the bolt and put 2 carbon fiber or nylon washers on each end....and tighten down. You can beat on that piece of steel until the cows come home now, and that bolt will stay tight.
Its all about dampening the vibration.
On my Gamo I cut a gasket and put it between the reciever and their lovely "recoil reducing rail", and that has done the trick. Everything stays tight and in place now.
