Just a question.. did you actually thread it on? Or did you just put the tape on and then pushed the extinguisher on?

Epoxy is effectively a 2-part glue (and is considerably stronger than most other glues), and would probably be your best bet. JB Weld is the best stuff to use.

If the chamber is moving around that is bad! Use the epoxy. When I did my extinguisher I smeared the pipe fitting and the threads on the extinguisher. No leaks and that dog ain't coming out no how.
