    Is there some wrong with my Reo Grand

    A small gap between the atomizer and REO is pretty much normal A 1.5mm CS X 10mm ID o-ring will fill in the gap If you insist on trying to tighten the atomizer, you could easily break something Don't get carried away, or you will be sorry

    Confused on the Rm2. Help

    The base of the regular RM2 is turned down on a lathe exposing brass so that it will screw into a regular catch cup Other than that they are the same It looks like your LP RM2 didn't need to be turned down to fit into the regular catch cup

    The o-ring is mainly to allow for positioning of the air hole in the atomizer Ideally between 10 and 2 O'Clock when firing The o-ring is also to prevent leakage
