#3 Loosens after fire (but never #1): y/n
#4 No issues with #2 or #3: y/n

what else?
#1 10/21/16
#2 Y -- Hell yes
#3 Hasn't yet
#4 See #2 above

I have been unable to get this screw out even with Bondhus T Handle 1/8 driver. Right now my pistol is resting sights down with the screw soaking in Kano Kroil. I am going to give it a try tomorrow. If I can't do it then to S&W. I am 6'2" and 235 pounds and have broken many a bolt off ocertightening. I have been taught by this experience (and my father) never to "force" anything beyond what seems reasonable.

This pistol shoots great, although I haven't gotten it apart yet to clean it completely (Just using a Bore-snake), so I don't know its potential.

Damned irritating!
