So I've had my SB since I guess maybe 2009. I recently pulled it back out, as it has been sitting dormant for a couple of years. I got an RSST, MNKE battery, kick sleeve, and Kick V2 to turn it into a beast, but now the thing rarely fires. It's driving me absolutely MAD.
The ring around the 510 connection popped out and was bad, so I replaced it with a spare o-ring I had as per an old discussion I saw on here. Didn't help at all.
The battery spring flattened out so I pulled it out and expanded it a bit. Nope.
If I fidget with the RSST a bit while it's on there, I can SOMETIMES get it to fire, but then it's loose and wobbling around. I absolutely cannot get it to fire anymore when I tighten it down, no matter how much I extend and retract the center pin. I guess it seems like the problem is 100% with the 510 connection. I'm at the point where I'd love nothing more than to just get a new top cap for the SB, if that's even possible.
Can someone PLEASE help with this?
