Agree with Old Newf on the currency of old threads.

I too will not use or advocate Loc-Tite. I have the Gunsmither tool, the Ron Power tool and a separate drill chuck. All three work equally well, along with the other preparations and precautions listed.

I have two sets of tools I use for firearms. One set stays in the cabinet for home use only. The other set resides in my (old) Pachmayr gun box, which goes out with me whenever I am shooting. This set of tools has everything I would need in the field. If, although it has never happened to me, I do have an ejector rod loosen, I can correct it right then and there.

Besides the utility element, I just find one of life's little pleasures is having the right tool for the job.
