Yes sir, at least that is the only logical assumption that I have come up with. I had not removed that piece in the short time that I have owned it. I cannot speak for the life this pistol has lead, in my time with it has fired about 50 rounds without a single hiccup, other than the grip screw falling out, and this piece coming unthreaded. I'm assuming that due the age of the pistol, mid 80s, and my, and possibly previous owners, lack of making sure everything with threads was tight prior to firing, things had just worked themselves loose. If these assumptions are like most, I may be wrong. I welcome other ideas as to why these things happened.
