Yes, the FTE issue was easy to fix on mine, but not on my sons for some reason. As for the take down screw, ours both look to have been treated with some type of thread locker.. I'm guessing it's Vibratite or something similar due to it being reusable. The threaded insert caught us completely by surprise tho... did not expect that to come out. It might very well come to it being sent back for repair, but I'm a bit stuborn and not ready to give up on it yet.
