Hi All, Just dug out my Pure Air tank and found that the screw that goes into the oops has been ground down on one side somehow (i guess it was dropped/dragged at some point) can anyone tell me if this is dangerous and if it can be replaced?

thanks

Are you talking about the threading on the reg that screws into the OOPS of the marker ?
I would advise you do not use it mate.

DO NOT USE speak to someone where you purchased the bottle or speak to someone like H-PAC. Here's there number 01902494988. The reg needs to be rebuilt or replaced.
Hope that helps.

You can get a new 'bonnet' for pure energy regs. Held on by grub screws but if you're not sure get someone else to change it.
Always remember to empty the bottle before messing about with anything
