However the 'V' is upside down... which means that it will only sit in the slot if the screw is very tight.
We have opted for electrical tape around it now, so it won't fall out again.... but is this a design fault, or was the slot screw on backward in the factory?

Hi Cassie,
You are correct in that this is a poor design fault.
I too have considered turning it around, but this would make the fine adjustment of the finder scope very difficult.
Having said that, mine has never fallen out.
Do you have the rubber O-Ring properly in place?
