Depends on the type of brand gun you are using. TM screws with a TM grip shouldn't have a problem no matter how hard you tighten it. You will end up stripping the frame before you even tighten it to the point where it causes issues with cycling of the gun.

The small internals for the hammer assembly, if arranged properly and well lubricated should not jam up upon tightening down that part of the gun. The hammer/valve knocker assembly parts should be carefully inspected. Make sure the disconnecter parts can be pushed down a little bit without force. If its jamming, disassemble the assembly and ensure each part is positioned properly. The small spring in the disconnecter set could have been dislodged.

The main culprit causes cycling issues and the slide jamming half way is normally the front end of the gun. Something to do with the barrel, slide, hop-up and spring guide/bushing. The barrel in a WE is oversized, so it will not cycle properly with a stock TM plastic slide. Along with the spring guide and spring bushing.

If your blowback unit is having issues like a sticky nozzle then a full disassembly should be done on the rear end of the gun. The blowback unit screw for the piston head could have came loose over time from blowback shock. Hence why its always good to use a small application of blue thread locker on each screw for a handgun.

Hope this helps...

Yes it definitely is there, it's just cast into the hopup unit, it's not a seperate piece.
Yup Styrak is right, it is casted on the TM hop-up unit. It's not removal-able hence why I said its really difficult to get a TM hop-up chamber back into a metal barrel without a little force.
