TM Desert Eagle Slide Woes

Hey Doc(s),
First off, I apologize if i don't always use the proper terminology, but I'll try to keep that to a minimum.

Anyway, I've been having trouble with my Deagle(Hard Kick) lately in which at times, when I cock or fire the gun the slide doesn't fully return to it's original position, but remains about a centimeter back.

I think I've narrowed the problem to part 50AE-26 and it's accompanying screw/bits 50AE-13 and 50AE-14. (as shown in the picture)


The problem is, these pieces often get loose after I go through a couple of mags thus hitting the edges of the hole it slides in and out of. I often find myself stripping the gun in order to re-tighten the bits.

Is there a way of fixing this problem? I was thinking of removing them completely, as I do not think they add to the functionality of the gun, but then again I may be wrong.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

-----UPDATE-----
So I decided to unscrew the part to take a better look, and I found out that it was the actual plastic frame that was cracked along the threading However the metal frame underneath is still in one piece:


Part 50CS-3 crack along the hole


The metal slide underneath is in one piece though. (Thankfully)
