Sounds like the set screw is loose or missing. Take the ram apart and look closer and tell us what u see?

Mine will do it too if you give it a good shake and its not gassed up, its just the ram sliding foreward. I don't think you need to worry about it.

Make sure your screw is not stripped. Same thing happened to me. When you tilt it or shoot it down, it will fall foward. I needed a new ram.

I am thinking you only experience this problem when the angel is not gassed up. This is normal. There has to be pressure in the gun for the 14way to hld pressure in the ram therefor holind the ram/bolt/hammer back.

I've never noticed this with mine.....
Darkone, the screw is a tiny set screw located on the ram/hammer assembly.

lol There is no problem with that. Your ram is lubed good and is slick. Have you ever picked up a timmy with no air and simply point the barrel down and the bolt slides foward. Like wise when you point it in the air the bolt falls back. Np.
