    Yep I've got one.
    What's your question?
    Apparently "Zombie Apocalypse" isn't a good reason to acquire.

    Mine has a lot of movement fore & aft with the cylinder, does the ratchit take the recoil or should there be tube sticking out through the ratchit that goes against the frame.I have spoke to a few diffrent people including
    Westlake Engineering who seem to think this tube has broke off; others think
    the frame may have stretched, thanks for your time.

    Mine has almost no movement front to back, the cylinder wont drop in unless straight.
    The indexing "ratchet" fits flush with the frame so no tube.
    The only "tube" is the one at the front.

    Picture here.

    Hope this helps a bit.

    I had one for a while.

    Something doesnt sound right mine was tight as a tight thing.

    You'd have had to shoot the nuts out of it to stretch the frame with BP though

    Are you sure you have the right cylinder for the gun

    If you bought it from a shop I'd dump it back there quickly
