Loose plunger tube - The Firearms Forum

Hi folks,
I have a SA 1911 G1 . Plunger tube has become loose and is causing havoc with the safety. Broke it down (as far as I was comfortable doing) and took safety lever out. Can't see any way to tighten plunger tube. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Unless you have the proper tool, it should be taken to a smith or sent back to the factory. With the proper tools, it is easy to do, but not many home gunsmiths have them
