JT-30 connector repair

Hi, Fritz.
I have an old JT-30 with a screw-on connector that doesn't want to stay in place. (It is not threaded in, just held in place by the collar thingy). What is the best (or easiest, if that's too complicated) way to reattach it so that it stays put?
I was thinking that a set screw might make the most sense. If so, what size do you recommend, and from what source?
Thanks.

Yes, it's press-fit.
But there is no apparent set-screw hole. I guess it's drill and tap time.
Thanks, Fritz.
If you're referring to the thread-on mounted to the mic itself, most are press-fit or threaded with a set-screw. A 6-32 is a common choice and can be found at any hardware store selling fasteners.
