I have an akuma mod clone that I haven't been able to use for the past couple months. Something happened to the lock ring that appears to have created small chips in the threading thus preventing me from being able to ublock the fire button. Is my mod done for? Is there anything that I can do to fix this?

Can you take a pic?
I have to ask- have you actually tried to turn the lock ring?

Every clone I've ever purchased has been junk except for the Stingray X which was better than the original. Tube mods require regular maintenance, cleaning, lubricating, spray some wd40 on it, use a vice, mole grips and a cloth, either separate the two parts or throw it in the bin, choice is yours, don't buy clones. They are cheap for good reason.
Oh stop. You just been buying the wrong ones.
Don't get me wrong I have some very expensive toys here but several clones as well.
you do the research and buy the right ones they are every bit as good if not better then the aufhentics

I bought the Vanilla clone in copper but was infact brass and copper plated lol I liked the size and the idea but the thing never did fire properly, sold it to a vaping buddy who felt I had cursed him with it. I bought it after watching a video of Todds on the genuine from Cloud9 and Twisted 420's review of the clone, consequently I gave twisted some grief about it too! I bought both the 18650 & later my fav the 18500 vanilla in stainless from cloud9 plus the hybrid adaptors and silver plated upgrade contacts. Both devices were a dream to use no misfires ever, both were kicked which fitted perfect with the hybrid adaptors & genuine AW batteries. I've since sold the 18650 but the 18500 will always be one of my fav tube mods.
The Stingray X was the mod of mods at the time, the clone was produced to a better standard than the original. It was hinted that the manufacturer produced 1000 for a quick sale then sold the plans for the original to the cloners. I bought a 4nine clone which is a piece of junk, fires for 5 mins then gives up, tried different size batteries, magnets and even a different hybrid adaptor to no avail, free to a good home for postage lol Since moved my gaze from mechs to boxes, tube mods are for collectors those with more money than good sense, just like some wooden box mods

I have a load of mechs, most of them clones, and I love all but one. And the one I don't like is due to it not having an adjustable 510 pin in the top cap. However, it hybrids nicely with a Heron.
Op, we need more info.
