Title: stuck latcging switch and dented couppler. HELP! convention tomorrow. Post by: AlthaxX on April 26, 2013, 12:39:08 PM Hey, the latching switch on one of my dom V2's is stuck in the on position, is there any easy way to fix this?
Also I have a dent in one side of my couppler and I am unable to put my staff together. Im wondering if I sand the dent down will this allow me to fit it together. I am going to Sci Fi on the rock tomorrow and my cotsume requires me to have a staff. Any help would be greatly appreciated I will post a pic f the couppler when I leave work today. ThNks in advance Title: Re: stuck latcging switch and dented couppler. HELP! convention tomorrow. Post by: Ninja-Jedi on April 26, 2013, 05:40:37 PM I had that happen with a latching switch unfortunately i had to replace it sorry i could not get it to unlatch without breaking the switch. For the dented coupler prob need to see pics is it on the inside where the threads are?

Post by: AlthaxX on April 26, 2013, 07:49:21 PM I found a temp solution to the switch, i can use the retention key to unlatch the switch. that should be okay until after the con. not to figure out the couppler, i dont have access to a tap and di until monday
