Great, hope to see a range report!

Sorry about the endcap. I'll mention it to production. However, the current versions of the Accu-strut don't have a critical spec wrt the endplug. Just tighten it using good judgment, and retighten if shooting loosens it again. It's alright to Loctite it if desired.

I have considered Loctiting it from the factory, and will if enough people want it. Some people like to open it, though, and use the volume for storage. I've considered storing an extra firing pin in there.
