    You mean the bit that holds the nut in on the bottom of the grip?

    If so then no. If that is then its clearly not right so get them replaced. (if thats it of course )

    So have the inserts for the nuts all rounded off including in the tail grips?

    Can you get a pic?

    The bolt will spin in the top but the nut in the bottom should not.

    I'll get a pic of mine.

    Same story with mine. I put some super glue on them and guided the nuts in with a tool, while tightening the bolts. Had the blades off a couple of times after and it seems to work fine now.

    What do those flanged washers do?
    They just look like finishing washer, just to prevent scuffing the grips while tightening the bolt.
