I shoot it 1-3 times weekly (as time, weather, etc. permit at the range), and carry it almost daily. Since the screw was a full turn loose, it must have gradually backed out. At half a turn, it looks flush ... a full turn leaves it ~.5 mm raised, and visibly not flush with the side plate. Even that slightly raised screw head was enough to catch my attention.
The low strength LokTite goes on tomorrow.
