Today after a trip to the range, I came home and was cleaning my M29-3 and discovered the cylinder latch was loose. Other than tightening up the screw that holds it, is there a Loctite product I might should use? I didn't shoot all that much...maybe 50 rounds or so with only 15 being 19 gr of 2400.
Make sure you use the largest screwdriver possible (with the proper tip ) - just make sure it is TIGHT.
I've never used locktite on anything other than the ejector rod........and I used the blue flavor
Continue to check it after next range visit - use the blue if it doesn't stay tight but just use a {small drop}.
I have a set of Chapman screwdriver bits with handle and ratchet I've had for decades and found one of the bits that fit it perfectly. I tightened it down but not 50 ft-lbs so hopefully it'll stay there for awhile. I don't like using Locktite for most things but sometimes it's necessary. Hopefully, this won't be one of them.
