So some time after installing my upgraded spring, guide, and cylinder I've noticed that my charging handle feels loose and awkward whenever I try to pull the spring back. Upon disassembling the gun I've found the area pictured is loose and wobbly, and even feels like it wants to rip right out of that end of the piston. As far as I can tell it's just held in place by the little indents on the piston its self. Any ideas on how to possibly repair it, or just bite the bullet and buy a new piston assembly all together? I'm a little weary on just replacing the piston if it's just going to wind up like this one when I use the upgraded spring with it. www.dropbox.com/s/tdo5f9dipjfk6ti/2013-04-15%2002.26.03.jpg

I haven't put the piston back into the gun yet, but I have the spring and everything put back together. It seems pretty strong but I'll mess around with it in a bit to see if it'll hold well.
Edit: Put it all together again, and put a couple of rounds through (it's raining, and dark, so I didn't feel like going through a couple of mags tonight), but the pull is firm and there's not much wobble in the charging handle. It'll hold for a while, hopefully until after origins when I can find a stronger cylinder in stock, or just have someone weld the behind end of it together or something.
