ProSport baffles loose

[AmBraCol]

At the range on Saturday I was working on perfecting my technique for longer range shots and seeking a better grouping pellet.  The ProSport was shooting sweetly and grouping well.  But then as I was packing up I found the muzzle baffle had edged forward a bit.  Doing a bit of a 'net search yesterday indicates this is not an uncommon problem, but was using a borrowed computer and don't recall the terms I used as today the results found are not being repeated. 

So, the question is - are these parts just held in place by friction?  How would one go about removing them in order to replace them using an adhesive to hopefully keep them in place?

I've never removed the barrel from the action so am not sure what else it entails than removing the nut at the breech end.  Is the barrel permanently (or semi-permanently) attached to the shroud, or is it fairly easy to remove the barrel assembly, remove the barrel and push the baffles out the muzzle? 

Thanks in advance for any assistance in this matter.  Attached is an image of the baffle protruding from the shroud.

What you have is a shrouded barrel and the barrel is only about 9.75" long. The baffles are pushed into the shroud and it is not uncommon for the baffles
to become loose. I don't think there is a need to remove the barrel as the baffles are in front of it. You might try some double sided tape to keep them in place.

Mine are gone. I bought the gun second hand and it didn't have anything in the barrel when I got it. Heck, I didn't even know that anything was missing until I saw another Pro Sport at a GTA Fun Shoot a few years ago. It looks like a 20 gauge shotgun, but shoots like a precision killing machine and it's still quieter than most spring guns.

Mine came loose too. I removed the end cap, which is what is sticking out of your shroud and not the actual baffles, then used some 320 grit sandpaper inside the shroud and on the outside of the cap.  Next I cleaned the inside of the shroud with alcohol and the outside of the cap with alcohol, then used a little superglue inside the shroud and reinserted the cap until it was flush. Mine has never come loose again.

Talk about a blast from the past! Since things are getting consolidated and sorted and such it's a good time to update this thread.

After posting this I ended up participating in a Field Target championship.  As we were going through the course my squad mate saw something fly out when I shot. It was a baffle.  And then as we progressed down the line the rest came out.  We were able to safely retrieve them all and I kept them in a ziplock baggie for a few years, wondering what to do. In the meantime I continued shooting the rifle and competing.  A couple years ago, just before another national shoot, I decided to pop them back into place and see what would happen.  They've been in the rifle ever since and no sign of movement at all. Held in place with friction, but I think the time they spent out of the rifle may have lead to the the inside of the shroud being roughed up by lead dust or whatever.  Anyway, she's still shooting sweetly and the baffles definitely make a difference in sound. The first time I heard someone else shoot the rifle I thought it had broken!  With it held to the shoulder and properly cheeked the movement of the spring and piston drowns out the muzzle report.
